is this not what handles the RAM disk? I didn't realise it was in the ROM, I thought it was loaded from disk when needed.

I'm fairly sure it was a file on disk on WB1.2/1.3... I'd guess even in the old days, the O/S needed RAM to work before it could load anything!

@Moto

just looked it up, can't find anything specific to ram-handler, but handlers are for filesystem devices, which includes the RAM disk.  They are stored in L: (unless they're in the ROM)
