I am using FreeBSD 3.4.

I had a look at "man vnconfig" before but was worried because there was no 
mention of ramdrive size ( I need an 8MB ramdrive ).

Do you think I need to use "dd" to create a file ( 8 x 1024k blocks ) and
then use "vnconfig" to move it into ram and mount it ???


Thanks for your help, Brendan...
