I'm running MS-DOS 3.0 on an AT (512k RAM w/256K ramdisk using VDISK, no
hard disk) and am running out of environment space.
I've tried including the following in my config.sys:
      shell=\c:command.com \c: /p/e:30
however the system will not accept this on cold start.  It appears that entering
      set shell=\c:command.com :\c /p/e:30
from the keyboard does work.  Can anyone help?

I can be reached at AT&T Bell Labs on 201-386-6865 or via the net
