Default Rebootable Virtual Floppy

I used to use software back in the day to assign part of my RAM as a Virtual Floppy which I could write and ADF to, reboot, and boot from.

Sadly it's been so long that I forgot what I used to use. Anyone know of some nice apps that will serve this purpose and are not too complicated to set up?

Thankx!

Hey, thankx for making me look dumb! ha ha!

Alright, now the software I am using to write ADF files to Disk does not support RAD:

What software is there out there that does?

Thankx again!

TransADF supports RAD:. I use it to convert between DMS and ADF.

Correction, TransADF is not the software I used to use. The name rang a bell, but not for the right reason.

I did find this though and it seems to work fine: tsgui.lha
