Let me explain the actual task. I have FreeDOS and two each Win and OS/2. Two each because they both change and I don't get rid of one OS or app until I believe the new is ready to replace the old. I also maintain two copies of the GUI OSs for redundancy and maintenance. So the first HDD has five boot partitions. The first two partitions on the second HDD are apps and data. I have apps with data that I share between OS/2 and Win, and DOS apps with data that I run under all three OSs. Run objects point to apps and apps point to data. That means all OSs must at least see the same drive letters for the app and data partitions. Win lets me play with drive letters and I do. OS/2 has the option, but for me there is a trade off and I don't use the option, but don't really need it. I do have OS/2 and Win with NTFS and HPFS drivers to see each other. That leaves DOS. It is not so much that I need DOS to work with NTFS or HPFS, I just need to get drive letters assigned prior to the apps and data partitions. As for the DVDs. In OS/2 and Win I have them as X&Y. If there is a way to get FreeDOS to assign the same letters I would appreciate a cookbook. I have a NTFS4DOS.EXE dated 8June2004 size 93.819 but have not had time to try it.
