Easy.  First, adding logical drives.

In your config.sys file, just add the line

	LASTDRIVE=<something>:

For example: LASTDRIVE=F:

would give you logical drives A: through F:, which is what it sounds
like you want to do.

As for SUBST, I believe the command to delete a SUBST drive is:

	SUBST <drive>: /d

As in "subst d: /d".
