The virtual drives under Merge can be confusing - probabally one of the most common source for support calls.
WITH UNIXWARE 1
A: & B: floppy drives as you would expect
C: is the whole UnixWare file system ( / ) (you should have no permission to do anything in C:\ !) So you cannot allow applications to automatically update your C:\CONFIG.SYS and your C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT. So with UnixWare 1.x, you will have to manually edit these files (as root).
D: is a short cut to your UnixWare home directory.
E: is your first DOS partition on your hard drive (assigned by FDISK)
Liikewise of the F: to I: drives
J: is the UnixWare /usr/ldbin and is used for installing shared applications.
For CD-ROM drives, mount under UnixWare and then use the DOS SUBST command to assign a spare drive letter to C:\MNT (or wherever you mounted it).
The NetWare drive letter is O: (you can bring this up as high as K: if you want using LASTDRIVE parameter).
