I need a little help in using my D: drive as WD1.  How do I initialize the
volume and how do I mount it?  I would like to store the distribution sets
and all of the patchkits in a 386BSD filesystem (so I can keep the long names).

I presently have a 544 mB drive partitioned for MS-DOS and 386BSD (soon to dump
MS-DOS) and a 210 mB drive spare and available.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
