Ralf, Rich, the manual says different (From the Trump card manual): " FORMAT ram1_mdv2 loads an image of mdv2 into RAM Disk 1 The RAM Disk can even load a Microdrive with a damaged directory. It cannot, however, load a Microdrive with a damaged map."
Note the example - It's identical to what Rich tried to do, so it should work on drive 2, too. From what you write, Rich, I understand mdv2_ is working fine on other commands? Did you try on a newly reset machine?
