I seem to be in a bit of a conundrum. I have a computer on my bench with a fux0red floppy drive controller, and partition... I need to boot to partition magic, but alas, I have no FLOPPY DRIVE! So, I decided to make boot CD's. Partition Magic boots to Caldera DOS, and requires a CD-ROM driver. NWCDEX.EXE seems to do the trick, but I am having a bit of trouble with the syntax.
NWCDEX.EXE /D:Driver_name [/L:Drive_letter] [/M:buffers]
I kept trying to get this to work from command line. If I type NWCDEX.EXE /D:NWCDEX.EXE /L:DE /M:14 then NWCDEX.EXE throws out 6 CD-ROM drives... Can anyone clear this up for me?

I think I found an old ATAPI driver... ATAPI_CD.SYS but I still can't seem to get this working...
