Hello everyone,
It's been too long since I really messed with the internals of OS 9, but long before that I used to boot System 6 off of a RAM disk.
Seeing as I currently have a G4 Mini with 1024MB RAM, and I never use anywhere near 50% of it, and my OS 9 boot disk only uses up 550MB...
Anyone know of a way to get OS 9 installed and booting on a RAM disk? Any particular RAM disk to use for this? Or is it just not possible anymore, as the RAM gets wiped at reboot and isn't presented to the EFI partition as a potential disk?
Since OS X boot CDs do it, it seems like it *should* be possible, but it may require some EFI tinkering.
Thoughts?
