Can I create b: on the fly, allocate 1.44 megabyte RAM, do all copies there and then copy it back?
Am I on crack?
regards, Jakob

It turns out that DOS' ioctl 0x440F (set logical drive map) was strangely implemented. From the doc I have, this ioctl is responsible for setting the logical drive to access a physical drive. This is used for example, on a single floppy PC when implementing the copy a:foo b:bar command, where a: and b: refer to the same physical device (the floppy), and this ioctl is called to toggle the access from a: or b: to the physical device. This implies that this ioctl is not responsible for creating the mapping of a: and b: to the same physical device. The current implementation was trying to achieve this goal and moreover it was done in the wrong way :-/ The attached patch removes altogether the support for logical drive map in int21h (and fixed Myst BTW).
