I have an XT that requires DRIVER.SYS to operate a 720K 3.5" drive.  I
accidentally dumped my CONFIG.SYS and do not know the parameters for
DRIVER.SYS.  Please help!

I tried DEVICE = DRIVER.SYS /D:02 (for physical drive A) and it loads the
driver but when I try to directory it, it gives me a seek error.
