APPLEWORKS CONFIGURATION
You will need to configure backup copies of the AppleWorks Startup disk and
Program disk to allow AppleWorks to use all of MultiRam C’s memory.
The MultiRam C configuration is a one time operation; once it is done, the
configured AppleWorks disks are ready to use. You will not have to reconfigure
the disks even if you later add more memory to the card. Simply boot AppleWorks
and use all the new added MultiRam features.
You will need three (preferably five) blank disks, your AppleWorks Startup and
Program disks, and the MultiRam disk to prepare your modified AppleWorks disks.
Once you have gathered these disks together, follow these steps.
