RAMDISC in TRDOS

[VELESOFT]

TR-DOS 6.05E and its successors are supporting ramdisks for any machine, you only need to edit the source. Since 6.09E the ramdisk goes downwards in memory, that means you can specify any size you want (Mr Gluk Reset Service uses this).

Can you create this TRDOS version for all ZX clones ?
(Actually must each user recompile sources for different ZX clones)

- ZX PROFI 1024
- PENTAGON 1024
- ATM TURBO
- ZS SCORPION 1024
- SPRINTER 2000 (can be added also SPRINTER's paging port)

For all this machines create this TRDOS versions:
- ramdisk 512kB only at end of extended memory
- ramdisk 648kB(81 tracks) at end of memory (PROFI use ramdisc begin from ram page 8 = software using more than 128kB memory will rewrite ramdisc )
Better way is use last memory page as start of ramdisc and all lower pages as next. (add only XOR for invert memory pages for ramdisc)

Any pages of extended memory is reserved for other software ?

Is possible in TRDOS 6.09E before FORMAT command set also size of ramdisc ? (81 or 80 tracks)

Each user is supposed to make a version for his/her own computer.

None.

Exist any other TRDOS with ramdisc ?

At least KAY-1024 version that I have not seen.

Exist software for load TRD file from HDD to extended memory ?

DNA OS.

Why ? Better is compile this trdos for all computer types and release it on web. Actually must 100 users of ZX PROFI recompile same trdos version for same computers , 20 users of QUORUM compile 20x same trdos, 15 users of ATM TURBO compile 15x same trdos, etc....

My idea:
create official WEB for TRDOS roms and documentation and release all possible trdos versions.

This page contain different trdos rom versions, but without any documentation
