Using persistent RAM disk

You use the Memory control panel to select the option of having any files that
are copied to the RAM disk saved in the System Folder on the hard disk when
you shut down your PowerBook, and copied back to the RAM disk the next
time you start up. This allows you to use your PowerBook’s RAM disk
without needing to rebuild it every time you restart your PowerBook.
