Re: Using the attached floppy drive after remote boot?

[Heinrich Rebehn <rebehn@comm.uni-bremen.de>]

In the mknbi-dos source directory you find a file rmrd.com which
you may want to put on your ramdisk. Executing rmrd.com under dos
removes the ramdisk and makes the floppy drive acessible again.
Another option would be to use the -c switch with mknbi-dos, which
maps the ramdisk to a virtual hard disk.
