[come and get me....]

What is the differences between mounting a hard disk with the Binddrivers
command and explicitly Mounting it?  I should be recieving my WEDGE soon
(Thanks, Tim ;-) and was wondering about Mounting the drive and its separate
partitions.  I am one of those silly fools with only one floppy, and my logic
said that for $200 I could get a WEDGE and a WX1 controller (drive extra), 
instead of a floppy drive; the extra cost of the drive at that point is
minimal.  My idea is to make a 1Mb partition to copy floppies into for 
reordering the files into a sane arrangement for fast startup.  Do I use 
Binddrivers to start the driver and Mount partitions or should I use Mount 
all the way through?

Thanks,
-ethan
