I thought the drive properties were stored on the drive itself. Anybody
know if that's correct (and where they're stored)? If they're stored
elsewhere (like in OS2.INI) then you could have different drive
properties depending on whether you booted from, say, your F: OS/2
partition or your G: OS/2 partition since they use two different OS2.INI
files.

Anyway, I have the most recent Graham CSD installed (a DIR /OD shows
file dates of 1-21-01) and I can open a CD's drive properties (I just
tried with my Junk Spy CD). There's no "WP ROOT. SF" file in this
particular CD's root directory, though -- ATTRIB * shows nothing Hidden
or System.
