I haven't had time to get elbow-deep in the source yet, so I don't
understand this.  However, it would be a *big* help if someone who 
groks the XML config format could post a few sentences here or in
the Wiki.  The biggest need I see is explaining access to raw hard
disk partitions, CD-ROM and other IDE devices, and similar.  Is
it path="\Device\HarddiskVolumeX", or is it 
path="\Device\HarddiskVolumeX\PartitionY", or what?

A great place to post this would be:

Thanks in advance :^D
