I did it and it works. And it does make the Zoomer noticeably snappier!.

First, you must have a ram card (flash or SRAM). Then, re-create the file
structure on the ram card (ie: in the root dir make a geoworks dir., and in
the geoworks directory make world, document, system (and any others that you
might need). The place the motif.geo in the system directory. Then reboot.
You can put executable (like Lector or Text Read, etc. in the world
directory, and they'll show up in the menu's just as if they had been put in
the b: drive. The c-drive files take precedence over the built -in rom
files, makeing upgrades very easy.

Enjoy!
