Comment:

I am using a Win98 Boot Floppy.
I have added a Zip file to the Floppy.
I need instructions on how to increase the size of the F:\Ramdisk, thereby, having enough space on the Ramdisk to copy the Zip File to it.
Thanks in advance for any help, instructions and info.
J.C.

In your config.sys there'll be a line something like this:
devicehigh=ramdrive.sys /E 2048
The 2048 is size of the ramdrive in KB. So edit that line to a larger number--3072, 4096, etc.
