Nick,


I did not like this either. For the pc386 I have written a small utility
that
generates a "C" file as a global array. This approach might have serious
consequences on systems with low memory footprint, because you may endup
with one
copy of the array in ROM and another in RAM. 
For the PC386, this is not one issue and memory is not either. :-).

It automatically creates the routine to call and initialize the FS in
your main()
routine.
