I was wondering if there is a way to force Drives to keep a certain letter
all the time. I previously had 4 partitions for hard drives, C:, D:, E:,
and F:, then two CD drives, G: and H:. I recently reformatted the
partition so I could dual boot Redhat from it so it disappeared from the
list of course. Now the H: CD drive has become the E: CD drive. I really
hate having the CD drive listed in between my hard drives like that. It
would be nice to just force the CD drives to always show up as Y: and Z: or
something, especially since I'll likely be making more partitions off of my
recently added new drive. Sticking them at the end of the alphabet just
ensures that they are always out of the way.
