    Hi ThePlayer

    The Ramdisk icon is in sys:prefs/env-archive/sys/def_RAMdisk.info

    copy this file to ram: as disk.info
    snapshot the ramdisk icon
    then copy disk.info back to def_RAMdisk.info
    this should work

    Ask Dr. Stupid,
    Dear Dr. Stupid,
    Why do we have to go to school?
    That's a very good question. It's becuse your parents are
    ALIENS!!! When your at school they shed there human skins and
    breathe drier lint! hahahaha!

    I'd like to snapshot my digital cameras icon. The problem is that the "drivename" changes everytime. As seen in here: http://koti.phnet.fi/yh14756/statbar.jpg

    ALL numbers change.. any suggestions? ;-)

    Hi hooligan,

    Isn't this the same as snapshotting shared drives with Samba?

    That drive, isn't that UMSD:?

    - Copy a disk.info on that drive (your digital camera)
    - Place it somewhere on Ambient
    - Snapshot
    - Copy the disk.info to sys:prefs/env-archive/sys as def_UMSDdisk.info

    If you can't copy files onto your digital camera, do it then with a harddisk:
    - Rename your original disk.info from your harddisk
    - Copy the desired disk.info onto your harddrive
    - See above
    - As last step, rename your original disk.info back

    Bye,

    Spidey

    @ThePlayer:
    It's one of the oldest tricks in Amiga land...;-)

    1) snapshot it where you like,
    2) copy the disk info over the HD (i.e- s:)and,
    3) make a script so it copy from there everytime it boots... (i.ecopy s:disk.info ram:)

    hope it helps
