Also, I wouldn't count on config.sys being there.  Turns out that during boot,
the system doesn't look at the permissions on the file, so I keep mine set to 
system, hidden and read only.  Keeps people from messing around with it, and 
gives me a cleaner root.  In fact, autoexec.bat runs fine with the hidden 
and read only attributes.  All you can see when you list the roor are 
directories.
