Deployment Solution
Drive designations Because FIRM and DOS recognize drives differently, they might
assign different letters to the same drive. So, for some commands you must specify the
drive type in addition to the drive letter.
Drive types are: OS (operating system drive), and f (FIRM drive).
Tokens You can use a token in place of a drive letter wherever one is required. Tokens
are just another way of accessing a drive on the partition. FIRM replaces tokens with the
appropriate drive letter.
Function

Examples
To delete the autoexec.bat file from the BootWorks partition, type
firm delete auto:\autoexec.bat
To see a directory list of the BootWorks partition, type
firm dir auto:\
Function Used in place of the production partition letter (Example: firm c:
