Drivers are loaded in fdconfig.sys and can use a path designation 
without driveletter being mentioned (DEVICE=\DOS\SOMEDRVR.SYS). Perhaps 
only the SHELL line gets you in trouble, as shells want to set COMSPEC 
variable and thus need a location specified.

Batchfile stuff is relatively easy as well:
SET PATH=%_CWD%
DRIVER.EXE /OPTIONS

however MS-COMMAND.COM has no CWD variable so there's a challenge, might 
be able to resolve it by evaluating COMSPEC
( for %%x in ( A..Z ) do if "%comspec%"== "%%x:\COMMAND.COM" SET PATH=%%x: )

Goodluck fiddling :)
