unused drive letter is used). The temporary logical drive is deleted if the card is
removed from the slot

2.2.2 Using the altec BIOS extension under Windows 95
The PCBoardCard is installed as described in 2.1.2 an configured as described in 2.1.3.
Notes:
The altec BIOS extension only supports ATA cards, i.e. the disk emulation only
supports C, D or Append. The PC Card must be inserted in either slot 0 or slot 1
before booting the operating system, and must not be removed while the
operating system is running. A new drive letter is created for each inserted PC
Card. The sequence of drive letter creation can be affected by the drive
configuration, since all primary partitions are assigned before assigning the
extended partitions.
2.3 OS/2 Warp3 und Warp 4
OS/2 also has built-in PC Card support which can be used to access Standard Flash and
ATA cards.Alternatively, access can take place using the altec BIOS extension firmware.
