A minor snag in development is driving me nuts.
First remember:
Jim wants a Batch File Based Installer.
What is required:
The batch needs to be able to pipe data from STDOUT to STDIN for things
like automated drive C formatting and
other things.
This is the potential issue:
If no writeable file system is present, DOS throws many errors and
cannot redirect the data from
one program to another.
Potential Solution:
Create a ram disk for the temporary files needed to redirect I/O.
This is the problem:
Unless I’m using it wrong RDISK doesn’t work with any reliability.
I got it to work once in my FDI building Virtual Machine.
I never got the Floppy boot disk version to work.
I need a working ram disk, or to get command shell just to do it in
memory.
