RAM or ROM based FS

Hello,

is there any API call to know whether my device is using the ROM
filesystem, whether the RAM/ROM filesystem. I want to know at runtime
(rather not by looking at the registry) whether the objectstore is the
root of my FS.

Thank you

No API that I can think of that would allow you to determine if the RAM FS
is in use or not. Why do you care?

In RAM+ROM we have a folder on the root called 'DiskOnChip', which
represents flash memory (external persistent filesystem).

In ROM only (where our DiskOnChip is now root folder) we could create a
folder with the name 'DiskOnChip'. This folder is now volatile!

OK, so.... It's contents were volatile before and even it's name could be
changed from the registry. If you are concerned about compatibility with a
previous build and want to make sure that folder won't be deleted then you
can plug in a filter to block deletes of that folder.
