I have to write a program which will load device drivers into DOS
from the DOS command prompt.  I have completed the part which
load character device drivers,  but I am completely lost when it
comes to installing block device drivers.  I am sure there are various
tables and control blocks which need to be updated when the block device
driver is loaded,  but I don't know which ones need what.

Does anyone know how to do this?  Can anyone suggest a reference
for learning what has to be done?

THanks for the help.
