How to configure virtual drives

The location of virtual drives can be specified by entries in the emulator configuration file (usually epoc.ini). You can override the default locations of z: and c: drives, or specify additional drives. The process is:

  1. Open epoc.ini in a text editor. It can be found at epoc32\data\. If it does not already exist, you can create it.

  2. Enter the keyword _EPOC_DRIVE_, followed immediately by the letter for the drive, a space, and the location on the PC file system it maps to.

    For example, _EPOC_DRIVE_D c:\temp maps a virtual drive D: to the PC directory c:\temp.

  3. Save the file.

Note that any mapping for the z: drive must specify a directory named z.
