--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes: The floppy disk on a single floppy system is counted
as two logical drives, A: and B:.
DOS 3 and later versions report a minimum of 5
logical drives, unless the CONFIG.SYS file contains
a LASTDRIVE statement.
To determine the number of physical floppy drives on
the system, use Interrupt 11h (17). To determine the
number of physical hard drives, use Interrupt 13h,
Function 8.
