The syntax for toolshed dsave can be obtained with the command
os9 dsave
You will see
Syntax: dsave {[<opts>]} {[<source>]} <target> {[<opts>]}
Usage: Copy the contents of a directory or device
Options:
    -b=size size of copy buffer in bytes or K bytes
    -e      actually execute commands
    -r      force rewrite on copy

Error 215 is "bad pathname".

I'd suggest moving into the ribbs directory and just using a target 
directory in the dsave command; full pathname not ..\ribbs.dsk
