The real problem with OS-9 is when you only have 24K available RAM in
a 512k CoCo 3. You then try to load a disk drive module and 2
descriptors which have all 3 been merged into a compact module about
1K or less, then you see only 8K of RAM available. You then try to
use your driver, and OS-9 reports Out of Memory.
If such a RAM card and it's drivers could improve on the memory
management of OS-9 Level Two, then it couldn't be a bad thing.
