Hi, I have no experience with Windoze, but I see one solution to detect drive letter:
what about to use small script written in Perl??? Install perl distribution on to your Memory Stick; under UNIX systems is perl always present (99%). Perl has more features then CMD.EXE... Only idea Good luck! PETR On 5/26/06, Andrew Miehs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
The issue is, he doesn't know which drive letter he is being assigned in windows.... the start.sh script would need to call DIRECTORY = `cd` and then base JAVA_HOME on this.... but don't ask me how to do this in deMeSDOS....
