Whee.
Well, I believe Norm when he says that during the Win9x install it uses
ramdrive,
/but/ its not on the OEM CD. (I have Win95 OSR2 OEM). Instead, its _in_ the
install code itself, methinx. To install into a 32-bit enviroment, it uses
ramdrive
much like the initrd of Linux, to establish itself into memory and system. In
the meantime, the system doesn't care because its not pre-ruled by '9x, which
everything asks Windows to access anything,and it can make or break it. But,
ramdrive.sys is not in the OEM CD.
In the meantime, i'll be transfering the Euphoria stuff off my freei address
(to leave it once and for all, I guess) to my USWest account (I got leviathan!
:)
Blessed Be! --"LEVIATHAN"
