In "The Rainbow Guide To OS-9 Level II:...", the author talks about /dd and
mentions that it's possible for /dd to point to a RAMdisk since /dd is merely a
copy of a device descriptor.  Since this is a change I want to effect, can I
make a copy of my /r0_256.dd and patch to name it DD, then insert it into my
os9boot where I now have /ddd0_40d.dd?  If my scheme won't work, what ought I
do instead?
