The command is: lredir [driveletter]: linux\fs[directory] This can also be used for access to a cdrom. With the following command in your DOS autoexec.bat: lredir e: linux\fs/mnt/cdrom the cdrom gets the E: drive letter, if the cdrom has been mounted at the /mnt/cdrom mount point. If no CDROM is mounted, E: is just empty (and non-writable). Regards, Jan
