Subject: RE: TOS in Ram

Author: Matthias Arndt (technix.in.tu-clausthal.de) Date: 08-07-2003 11:33 If you use builtin TOS, it is not loaded into RAM or relocated. A ROM TOS runs directly from the ROM chips. There is even no need to modify pointers. Although TOS uses a smal lpart of the available ROM for itself, a ROM TOS does not occupy a large amount of RAM, eactly thsi ist he reason why a TOS in ROM should be preferred about any RAMTOS. Only if you use a loader tool, TOS is loaded into RAM and relocated to run from there.
