In NetWare 6.5, use the lfvmount command on the server console to assign
the device a drive letter.
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.
When the Virtual Floppy Drive is mounted, if the media is changed in the local
floppy drive, the lfvmount command must be re-issued on the server console
to see the new media in the NetWare 6.5 operating system.
