Is there an easy way to change a volume label? If no label exists
then it can be created with _creat, it can be read by trying to
open a file (_open) with the label attribute, but the only way
that I can figure out to change it is by first deleteting it
using extented fcb's.  As I'm programming in C, I'd really like
to avoid them if at all possible.

Thanks in advance,
