[comp.sys.amiga.programmer] Device drivers - HELP!!

Dave@avignon.gbdt.oz (Dave Moore) (04/29/91)

Ok, I give in...
	How does a (non-autobooting) device driver get it's grubby little
hands on the pertinant information in the Mountlist?  It seems to me that
this information (wrapped up as a DosNode structure) should appear
somewhere, but I am unable to find out where.

	The device driver in "includes and autodocs" doesn't use this
information (as far as I can see), so this doesn't help me.

	Also, in "libraries & devices" it states that non-autobooting
drivers should call AddDosNode, but the sample driver only does this for
autobooting drivers.  Whats the story here?

(Oh yeah, email replies from outside of OZ will probably bounce, so
posting might be the safest way to reply.  Sorry)

	Any help greatfully accepted,
			Dave.
