The NetWare 6.5 operating system will pick the first available drive letter for the Virtual Floppy drive. The volumes command can now be used by the server console to show the mount status of this new drive.

When the drive letter shows as mounted, the drive will now be accessible through the server's GUI as well as the system console.
