It strictly behaves the same as aliasing to the letter.
Besides this... there is something that I realize now... which might
lead to something : I've always found strange that my system displays
a drive letter - R -, which I never could access - TOS ERROR I don't
remeber what, but meaning the drive doesn't exist -.
It wasn't obvious at first sight, as I was looking for the ramfs driver,
last day, but now, if I understand correctly, R is automatically mapped
to the default ramdrive when booting the system, isn't it ?
If so, and as this drive appeared as mounted but not accessable until
I forced it by aliasing in cnf, it might tend to mean that the code
might hide some malicious bug. Might I be right ?
