    I have had great help from this group in setting up a means of 
running DJGPP binaries from Ramdisk, and I am working on a sort
of installer (with a customised stub written in a very old version
of Turbo-C .. tcc).

   There is one question however. If the original computer has
several partitions on its hard disk the ram drive may not be drive D:.
Is there a simple way of finding out which drive the ramdrive really
is after installation ? A suitable DOS or BIOS interrupt call would be
a very simple solution in this case.
