You can look at the output of my DRIVES program for the D: drive when using

It's important to understand that once I boot into FreeDOS there is no
physical disk partition corresponding to drive D:. My FAT32 partition
(which is drive D: under XP) gets mapped to drive C: in FreeDOS. However, I

The thing is written in C(djgpp), but makes extensive use of dos batchfiles.
