Hi...

I think I'm saying something very stupid, because I've searched the list
and I haven't found anything related to the "Subject:"...

Anyway, what I needed is something like a FileSystem, but using RAM not
HardDisk.

I have some programs that hit HD hard.
I can't rewrite them, because I don't have sources. So I thought we could
make a RAM Disk (like x86 machines) and speed up the process.

Is it possible? How?

Thanks in advance,
