ChangeMemPri V2.0 by Chris Hodges
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~
This tiny tool can change the memory priority of any memory node available
in your system. The priority determines which memory is prefered to be
allocated if it's free.
Why could it be useful to change the priority? Let's say you've got 32 MB
on your Cyberstorm and 8 MB on your A4000 mainboard. Now you need the
largest block available for ShapeShifter. During bootup, your CS memory is
filled up, leaving just about 28 MB free on the CS board but the 8 MB on
your motherboard remain untouched. Now, if you lower the priority of the
CS-Ram or increase the priority of the mainboard ram, the big 32 MB chunk
doesn't get filled during boot up, leaving it for your use with
ShapeShifter.
This program is dedicated to McLane.
Requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~
ChangeMemPri needs Kick 2.04 or higher.
Usage
~~~~~
ChangeMemPri [NAME] yourmemory [PRI] newpri [LIST]
ChangeMemPri START address [PRI] newpri [LIST]
or just
ChangeMemPri
You might have to use quotes if the name of the memory node contains spaces
(e.g. "chip memory" or "expansion memory").
If you have got two or more memory chunks in your system carrying the same
name, you better provide a startadress to identify the board more clearly
(e.g 'ChangeMemPri START 8000000 40' will change the priority of the
CyberStorm Memory Board to 40).
Specifying the optional LIST switch or running ChangeMemPri without
parameters returns a list of all the memory nodes available.
History
~~~~~~~
V2.0 (12-Feb-98): Finally works now. I didn't know you have to sort the
lists after changing the priority.
When using the START option, NAME is no longer required.
V1.2 (08-Feb-98): Added LIST option.
V1.1 (08-Feb-98): Added START option for use when you've got memory chunks
with the same name.
V1.0 (08-Feb-98): First release.
