I need some help querying the installed diskette drives as to there
capacity.  DosQFSInfo/DosQueryFSInfo or the DevIOCtl calls after
'openning' the drive will provide the information but a diskette has
to be in the drive or the calls will fail.  Since I only need the
device's (not the inserted media's) capacity, I am not expecting a
diskette to be in the drive.  Does anyone know how to gather this
information?
