I don't see why you could not do it. As long as the Cloud-9 hardware 
supports a medium scsi, ide, flash RAM, etc. and can talk to it, then a 
RAM disk could be used as an intermediary.

All you need to realize is that drive numbers 0-3 don't use the RGBDOS 
HDBDOS special commands so only one type of special drive needs to be 
assigned at a time. That means any operation that can be performed with 
a floppy and special medium can be duplicated with RAM and the medium.
