TITLE :How DBLSPACE.BIN Determines If It Should Stay in Memory
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system version 6.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
If you have DBLSPACE.BIN in the root directory of your startup drive
(usually C) but you do not have a compressed volume file (CVF),
DBLSPACE.BIN still loads in memory.
After DBLSPACE.BIN loads in memory, it searches for the DBLSPACE.INI
file. If it finds this file, DBLSPACE.BIN remains in memory and
continues the boot process by loading IO.SYS in memory. (It doesn't
matter whether the DBLSPACE.INI file is valid.)
If the DBLSPACE.INI file is not found, DBLSPACE.BIN does not remain
loaded in memory.
Note: The DBLSPACE.SYS command in the CONFIG.SYS file does not effect
this process.
