[comp.os.msdos.misc] help installing 3.5" floppy in an AT

     I'm trying to install a 3.5" 1.44 MB floppy in an *old* AT.  The install
program that I have for the AT doesn't allow me to define a 3.5" floppy.
I figured that I could just use the drivparm to give it the number of tracks
and heads and sectors/track.  However, unlike my own computer (the AT is a
friend's), he has DOS 4.0 and doesn't have the books for it.  I know it
would have something to do with driver.sys, but I don't know how to use it.

     Can anyone give me the config.sys line I would need to add to have the
3.5" 1.44 MB floppy work as drive B on an AT?

I fixed the problem using driver.sys + an assign statement.  Thanks for
all the help
