This may not help the VAX that wants a semiconductor
RAM swapping area, but it may help others with 68000's.
I wrote a device driver that would grab all the ram on
the Multibus (TM) in one of our 68000 machines.  It 
had about 2Mb on a private bus, and left ram for other
devices (tape, ethernet, disk buffers, etc) alone.
We also had a 169Mb Fuji winchester.  Well, I mkfs'd it,
mounted it as /tmp and did some tests.  The Fuji disk
is so <deleted fast> that c compiles were SLOWER with
the RAM disk!!
