This is a general purpose RAM disk for any MSDOS 2.00 machine.
The size of the disk is variable, and is set in CONFIG.SYS, at boot
time.
To install RAMDISK, insert the follwing line in CONFIG.SYS on
your boot disk:
device = ramdisk.sys nnn
Where nnn is a decimal number, specifiying the size of
RAMDISK, in K bytes, i.e.
device = ramdisk.sys 160 160K disk,
device = ramdisk.sys 74 74K, fits WordStar overlays
device = ramdisk.sys 512 512K, you have lots of RAM
The drive number will be the next one available; i.e. on a PC
with two floppies, drive C:, on a PC-XT, D:.
WordStar note:
With WordStar INSTALL, you can change the drive that WordStar
looks for the .OVR files on. By installing the RAMDISK and copying the
.OVR files to it every time you boot, WordStar will run incredibly
fast.
