(Pro/AutoPro)
RamboDisk, a special RAM disk created to work with specific disk formats, lets
you make disks containing files that are frequently updated. You copy files to
this disk from the Dos prompt almost instantly and then use DiskDupe to
duplicate, track-by-track, from the RamboDisk to a floppy at the speed of the
hard disk. The RamboDisk, automated using Dos batch files, becomes a powerful
way to make customized disks at high speed.
First, install the RAMBODSK in the CONFIG.SYS by adding the line:
DEVICE=C:\DISKDUPE\RAMBODSK.EXE
Then from Dos set the disk type with: RAMBODSK /F=720 where:
/F=360 - 360k
/F=720 - 720k
/F=1.2 - 1.2Mb
/F=1.4 - 1.4Mb
/F=2.8 - 2.8Mb
/F=NONE - to release allmemory
(This can also be done in the CONFIG.SYS.)
Whenever the disk type is specified, the RamboDisk
will be formatted and all information erased. To
reformat an existing RamboDisk use: RAMBODSK FORMAT
If more than one RamboDisk is being used, use the
drive letter to indicate which one like this: RAMBODSK E: /F=1.4
