- I use mfs and am delighted with it. Basically in devs:dosdrivers you get a
- directory called df0, one called df1 and so on. Then in the df0 directory
- you put the pc0, ds0 and any other files you want (mac ones, other
- "alternative" things like ds if you use them) and ANY suitable thing in
- df0: will be referred to as df0:
-
- To see what it REALLY is you can use a utility that comes with mfs. (Also
- useful when formatting - the patch for format asked me to insert my
- workbench disk in df0: which perplexed me a bit)
-
- you only get an NDOS icon if you insert a totally unformatted disk or an
- NDOS game or whatever
