I am planning on getting a Soundblaster multimedia upgrade kit. My question is
a rather simple one, but reading the OS/2 manuals and helpfiles left me not
quite clear on what the situation was (well, it was late at night). :)

Will a CD running off a Soundblaster appear as a normal drive for data for
both my OS/2, and, more importantly, to my DOS sessions? I run a BBS in a DOS
window, and this is the main reason I am buying a CD-Rom in the first place.

email prefered for responses.

thanks.
