drives/* dir symbolic link names mapped to drive letters?

drives/* dir symbolic link names mapped to drive letters?

[Gregor Horvath]

Hello,

I have a old dos installation with 3 discs as images, and created
symlink to those images in the drives directory.
I named the symlinks c,e,f and I want to be those the drives letters in
dos.
However this does not work. The drives are mapped to c,d,e.

from boot.log:

device: /home/gregor/.dosemu/drives/c type 4 h: -1  s: -1   t: -1 drive
C: 
device: /home/gregor/.dosemu/drives/e type 4 h: -1  s: -1   t: -1 drive
D: 
device: /home/gregor/.dosemu/drives/f type 4 h: -1  s: -1   t: -1 drive
E:

Is this a bug or is it not meant that the symlink name gets mapped to
the drive letter?
How can I get the correct mapping?

greg

     Try adding a symlink for d, maybe pointing to /tmp if you want, 
then I think your e and f drives would match.
     It seems DOSEmu just traverses that directory in order and assigns 
the driver letters disregarding the name of the symlink or directory there.
     Bye.
