Apple IIGS: Problems setting the RAM Disk

You may encounter problems if you set your RAM disk to the entire capacity
of your RAM card. MouseDesk may be unable to write files to the disk when
it gets close to full, and programs run from it may crash. The problem is
in the Memory Manager, not in MouseDesk.

Until the problem is corrected, the workaround is not to set the RAM disk
size as large as the RAM card. This should be acceptable, as most people
need some of the extra RAM for the Tools and for data space for programs
(such as AppleWorks 2.0) that recognize it.
