No - yours is not a bug.

flp_use ram

Makes DIR ram1_ try to access flp1_

What you are trying to achieve should be done by RAM_USE flp
However, looking at Per's example - there is a reason for his not working  
as well.

The problem is down to the order in which device drivers work.

WIN_USE flp: DIR flp1_ will still try to access flp1_
as will RAM_USE flp: DIR flp1_

You need to first of all rename the floppy device driver

FLP_USE rat:WIN_USE flp:DIR flp1_ will give you what you want
