A replacement for findramd.exe

This little program jumps automatically (that is changes the default drive)
to the ramdrive. It also returns the ramdrive name as a string suitable for
redirection into a batch file and as an errorlevel.

It detects the first local,non removable,non subst,drive with 1 FAT
is the ramdrive. it returns errorlevel 1 if it can't find a ram drive,
thus is should detect most different ramdrives

(only tested with ramdrive.sys and vdisk.sys)

its drive changing behaavior is particularly useful in config.sys
allowing a self-extract archive containing the shell and autoexec etc to be
extracted from an install directive...

eg: (opendos 7.0)

lastdrive K
files=20
device  HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE  VDISK.SYS  2000 /e
INSTALL gotoramd.com
rem  changes drive to the ramdrive

install a:system.exe
rem  extracts archive to current directory ramdrive

shell .\4dos.com  @.\4DOS.INI /P: /D /K AUTOEXEC.BAT
rem note: no drive letters on the shell line
