RAMDISK.COM: This program is simply the virtual disk driver of 180kb
capacity supplied by IBM in the DOS 2.00 Manual. Just put it it
your CONFIG.SYS like any other device driver. It works fine.
Make sure you have adequate free memory for this to load or a
message will appear at IPL time: Bad or missing RAMDISK; where
RAMDISK is any filename you have renamed to:
Don't forget, you cannot use FORMAT, DISKCOPY, or other hard-
ware procedures on this, but copy works and similar disk oper-
ations. Read, write, error-handler. It is nice if you have
the space. The actual space required is not mentioned in the
manual, but I have 128Kb with DOS 2.00 and it seems to load ok.
