If I understand you correctly, you can use _truename("x:\", result); Loop over all drive-letters. Or maybe simpler with something like: struct mntent *mnt; FILE *f; for (f = setmntent(NULL,NULL); f; mnt = getmntent(f)) { if (mnt->mnt_dir[1] == ':') ; /* check drivelettter mnt->mnt_dir[0] */ if (!mnt) break; } endmntent(f); Look at the mntent.c in the djgpp source. It's seem to handle a lot of special cases. --gv
