Default How can I get rid of 'Ramdrive' on startup disk?

You can do it the easy way, go to bootdisk.com and you will find such a
thing there for download.

I tried editing out all references to ramdrive from the autoexec.bat
file but then it wouldnt boot.

Does anyone know how to get rid of Ramdrive from the startup disk while
keeping the boot disk functional?

Thank You

Default How can I get rid of 'Ramdrive' on startup disk?

Thank you John John for not freaking out about my seemingly strange request.
I am aware of Bootdisk.com and I did download a boot disk without the
ramdrive but it did some other strange things in place of the ramdrive and
it took an extremely long time to boot so it is not acceptable to me. I was
hoping there was an easy fix but I know how to create a boot disk with CDrom
support so I will just go through that hassle. It is probably the only way.

Thanks

Keven
