Bill, If you don't add a /P to the end of the line above, DOS isn't
supposed to run your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

And also, if for some reason, the current directory is NOT \, DOS won't
find your command.com.  I don't know of a way (at this point in the bootup)
that the directory could be anything BUT \, but c:\command is safer.
