Just wondering if it is possible to boot an a500 off of the ramdisk I have the 512k addon card and have heard people talking about doing it in the past but never any instructions
Thank you for any help 
If you set up a RAD:, you can boot first from floppy and transfer the system files to the RAD: (RAD: is configured as a fixed size of memory distinct from the RAMDISK). The RAD: will thereafter survive a warm reboot and boot very quickly. Most ppl add some fast ram (like a Supra 500RX, say 2, 4 or 8 MBytes) so the machine has a practical amount of memory of all types.
If you don't have the amiga docs, do a search for "Amiga RAD:".
RAD: is one of those ultra-cool features, faster than any hard drive, that gets overlooked.
