This is really getting off topic, but I am curious. I put up Linux with
the
UMSDOS system on one of my machines, but have never had occasion to paw
around
the lower levels. Granted that a reference to a drive letter should
never be seen at
the makefile level, is there a layer where DOS style terminology is
used, or do
the Linux drivers completely supercede the bios?
