Hello,
I've read a lot about creating a RAM disk in XPe. I've had one working
reliably (the QSOFT one) for a while now, and have also had the other
common ones working (MS sample, AR-SOFT). What I wonder is if anyone
has managed to make these work without having Dial-Up Networking Common
Libraries and Internet Explorer components? These do bring in about 30
Mb to my image, but I can't find what specific bits are the magic to
make the Ram disks work.
Without these components I see the disk in explorer but just get the
"Z:\is not accessible" problem (or "Incorrect Function" from the CMD
prompt).
At the minute I'm still at the post installation phase, so I'm confident
my problem is down to other missing dependencies in Windows. But I've
also tried building my own component, and still see the same problem.
Looking in C:\WINDOWS\setupapi.log, it says the same whether I have a
version of XPe that works or doesn't. The indication is always that the
driver installed correctly.
I refuse to believe the you need IE to make a RAM disk work. But then
again... /08
Thanks in advance.
David.
