drives/* dir symbolic link names mapped to drive letters?
Hello,
I have a old dos installation with 3 discs as images, and created symlink to those images in the drives directory.
I named the symlinks c,e,f and I want to be those the drives letters in dos.
However this does not work. The drives are mapped to c,d,e.
from boot.log:
device: /home/gregor/.dosemu/drives/c type 4 h: -1 s: -1 t: -1 drive
C:
device: /home/gregor/.dosemu/drives/e type 4 h: -1 s: -1 t: -1 drive
D:
device: /home/gregor/.dosemu/drives/f type 4 h: -1 s: -1 t: -1 drive
E:
Is this a bug or is it not meant that the symlink name gets mapped to the drive letter?
How can I get the correct mapping?

Try adding a symlink for d, maybe pointing to /tmp if you want,
then I think your e and f drives would match.
It seems DOSEmu just traverses that directory in order and assigns
the driver letters disregarding the name of the symlink or directory there.
Bye.
