Is there a program that will allow me to change the name of the file
that COMMAND.COM looks for when booting ??  By default, it looks for and
executes AUTOEXEC, i want to name it something else, maybe place it in a
subdirectory or something. Simply running a different BAT file from
within the AUTOEXEC is not what I want.

Any help appreciated...

Thank You.
