Molto grazia, Roberto. I forgot about this option and it works in Config.sys:
INSTALL=C:\FDOS\BIN\SHSURDRV.EXE 8192K /V I noticed that the sequence at which the commands are actually executed (hit F8 at boot time) is different for TDSK.EXE and for SHSURDRV.EXE. It looks like shsurdrv insists on loading after nansi.sys and "set" commands. Is it a good programming practice to actually edit config.sys to mirror that sequence? In my real life file I still have the following two "set" lines much closer to the top: SET DOSDIR=C:\FDOS SET DIRCMD=/P /OG /A ---- FDconfig.sys (execution sequence, last few lines) - TDSK.EXE ---- DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\FDXXMS.SYS BIOS NUMHANDLES=128 DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\UMBPCI.SYS DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\QCDROM.SYS /D:CDROM1 DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\CDRCACHE.SYS CDROM1 CDRCACH$ 12 DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\TDSK.EXE 8192 DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\NANSI.SYS /S SET DOSDIR=C:\FDOS SET DIRCMD=/P /OG /A INSTALLHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\LBACACHE.COM 8192 SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P=C:\FDAUTO.BAT ---- FDconfig.sys (execution sequence, last few lines) - SHSURDRV.EXE ---- DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\FDXXMS.SYS BIOS NUMHANDLES=128 DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\UMBPCI.SYS DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\QCDROM.SYS /D:CDROM1 DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\CDRCACHE.SYS CDROM1 CDRCACH$ 12 DEVICEHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\NANSI.SYS /S SET DOSDIR=C:\FDOS SET DIRCMD=/P /OG /A INSTALL=C:\FDOS\BIN\SHSURDRV.EXE 8192K /V /Q INSTALLHIGH=C:\FDOS\BIN\LBACACHE.COM 8192 SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P=C:\FDAUTO.BAT /**** END ****/ Lester > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Roberto Mariottini" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Try with INSTALL instead of DEVICE: > > INSTALL=C:\FDOS\BIN\SHSURDRV.EXE 8192K /V > > It should work, although it's not guaranteed. > > Ciao > --- > http://www.mariottini.net/roberto/ > Lester Vedrox wrote: > > I'm trying to use the new (Dec-2005) SHSURDRV.EXE from Jason > > Hood's website to create a RAM drive: > > > > http://www.geocities.com/jadoxa/ > > > > When used straight from the command line it works ok: > > > > C:\FDOS\BIN\SHSURDRV.EXE 8192K /V > > > > However, when placed in Config.sys it won't load and then it > > won't let Autoexec.bat to run ("bad or missing command > > interpreter" error). > > > > DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\SHSURDRV.EXE 8192K /V -- _______________________________________________ Surf the Web in a faster, safer and easier way: Download Opera 8 at http://www.opera.com Powered by Outblaze ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
