I have to write a program which will load device drivers into DOS from the DOS command prompt. I have completed the part which load character device drivers, but I am completely lost when it comes to installing block device drivers. I am sure there are various tables and control blocks which need to be updated when the block device driver is loaded, but I don't know which ones need what. Does anyone know how to do this? Can anyone suggest a reference for learning what has to be done? THanks for the help. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I program ... therefore I am.
