Kevin,

I just happened to have a couple of BASIC programs that save and restore LSN0. 
Disk ID of the virgin ramdisk was zero, disk ID of the "new" ramdisk image
wasn't.

I wrote a very short procedure file that calls "dmp" (from the UG disks or
here, I forget where I got it) to set the ramdisk's ID back to zero.  Works
like a champ and takes a mere four seconds or so!

Thanks for the help, I was just curious why the ramdisk returned the error and
the floppy didn't!

-J
