Hello all!
I found a file named "InternalDriveVolume" in three of the folders of
Palm OS software I have installed.
(folders like *:\Program Files\[Program name])
The file sizes were 520 & 231 KBs (I deleted the other one).
Google knows nothing about this file, but it seems to be a file created
by Palm OS Simulators, because I also found the file in some of the
folders where I have Simulators installed.
I'm suspecting some Palm OS Simulator created this file when I opened
these folders to install the programs (PRCs) inside them for testing on
Simulators (right-click on Simulator window -> Install -> Database...).
Opening the file with Notepad shows that it is a binary file, and
contains these strings near the beginning "PALM 4.0", "NO NAME" and
"FAT16".
Seems that the Simulator is creating the file in the wrong place, so
this must be a bug. I don't know if only some (or all) of the Simulators
exhibit this behavior.
It's a well-known thing of the simulators with NVFS to write the NVFS to
certain places on your harddrive (C:). You might delete them it will be
recreated next time. And yes, it stores everything you've installed
during simulator session, just as the NVFS on the real device.

Henk
