   Just rest assured that the backup program is the same irrespective of   
   the way the drive is connected.

   I would change the drive number from 0 to some between 2 and 6.

   If you have a DOS box there probably will be another config.sys file for   
   that operating environment. NOTE: I know nothing about a DOS box since   
   one isn't needed for OS/2 that does have a built-in DOS mode.   
      
   Maybe Advansys does have a .sys file that does the same job as Adaptec's   
   aspidisk.sys. In any case, an aspidisk.sys file must be available from   
   someone closer than the Aland Islands. The file is 13 kb uncompressed.

   That is correct as long as you don't have a disk in the SyQuest drive   
   being numbered 0.
