I have two questions, please:

1)  In attempt to expand the size of my RAM drive using DOS 6.2, I
    recently purchased considerably more memory for my Compaq Armada
    7800 lug-along computer. I attempted to expand the size of my RAM
    drive by expanding in my config.sys file the statement

               DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\RAMDRIVE.SYS 32767 512 224 /E

    Unfortunately, it won't expand. Does anyone know how I can make
    a large RAM drive of 100 megabytes? Would it help if I used
    Windows 98 DOS (DOS 7.0)? I will not install Windows on my
    computer.

2)  I continue to search for some way to use telnet and ftp with DOS.
    I have tried minuet, pegasus, bobcat, and arachne softwares and
    cannot make any of them work. Is there a way?

Thank you for any help offered.
