Sorry if this is a repost, but I have had a lot of mail indicating my
last message did not get out.

The device driver installation/removal kit is available by anonymous ftp
to [129.97.128.196] in pub/drvinst.arc.  

Here are the features in a nutshell:
	- allows you to install and subsequently remove devices AFTER you
	  boot up, hence your config.sys stays the same and you don't have
	  to reboot
	- installs most character devices and most of those stupid programs
	  which insist upon being in the config.sys file.  You can install
	  most expanded memory drivers like this, PC/IP, etc.
	- requires an additional 4000 bytes for the loader, but that can be
	  recoverred when the driver is removed
and it's FREE so you may as well try it out.

Erick
