/*
**	Changing Any MountList Parameters Except As Noted Below Will Cause
**	The Recoverable Ram Disk To Cease To Function.
*/

/*
**	IF YOU HAVE SOME FAST RAM:
**
**		Make BufMemType equal to 5.
**		Set HighCyl appropriately.
**
**	IF YOU HAVE ONLY CHIP RAM (NO RAM EXPANSION):
**
**		Make BufMemType equal to 3.
**		Set HighCyl appropriately.
**
**	Increasing the value of Buffers will actually slow down the ram disk.
**
**	The BufMemType flag is actually  the second parameter of the AllocMem
**	calls the kernel will make to  allocate  internal buffers. Making the
**	value places the buffers in Fast ram. A value of 3 places the buffers
**	in Chip ram.
*/

/*
**	Setting HighCyl
**
**	HighCyl determines the maximum size of the recoverable ram disk. It
**	defines the number of tracks there are in the disk. Each track con-
**	tains 16 512 byte blocks (or 8K of information).  Changing  HighCyl
**	and rebooting will cause a fresh (empty) recoverable ram disk to be
**	created.
**
**	It is better to run out  of  space on the recoverable ram disk than
**	to run out of memory. That  is,  don't  set  HighCyl to make a disk
**	larger than your total amount of memory. 
**
**	Remember, the ASDG  Recoverable  Ram  Disk does full dynamic memory
**	management. That is, HighCyl is really just a Maximum size. Setting
**	HighCyl to a large number does *NOT* mean you automatically lose  a
**	lot of memory.
**
**	HighCyl MUST BE ODD!
**
**	Suggested HighCyl Values:
**
**	Fast Ram Installed	HighCyl Value	Max Ram Disk Size
**
**		0		     15		      128K
**		512K		     31		      256K
**		1Mbyte		     63-95            512K-768K
**		2Mbytes		     127-191	      1Mbyte-1.5Mbytes
**		4Mbytes		     255-383**	      2Mbytes-3Mbytes
**		8Mbytes		     Anything less**
**				     than 1024
**
**	**This version of the ASDG Recoverable Ram Disk has been configured
**	to support ram disks  up  to  2Mbytes in size. That is, the maximum
**	valid value of HighCyl is 255. A  verison  supporting up to 8Mbytes
**	of ram disk is available from ASDG Incorporated.
**
**	REMEMBER: If you have  Fast  Ram  that  autoconfigs, some amount of
**	it will be used by the operating system even before the recoverable
**	ram disk starts  up. So, you've  actually  got about 100K less than
**	you think.
**
**	NOTE: Using Addbuffers with the ASDG Recoverable Ram Disk will 
**	slow the ram disk's performance.
