If the `restart' is Tom Almy's of May 1990 (recently posted c.b.i.p), then
the boot drive is taken as the first character of the environment varialble
BOOTDRIVE or COMSPEC.  In fact, `restart' isn't looking for the main command
interpreter, but for it's data file `configur.dat', in the root directory of
the drive where BOOTDRIVE or COMSPEC points.  The files actually written by
`restart' can be anywhere.
