Certainly not!

The /MP switch you are referring too is only valid for the 32--bit
OS2DASD.DMD, the LVM aware one.


DANIDASD.DMD is a 16-bit device driver, hence not lvm-aware and hence not
compatible withr the /MP switch.  Because the former 16-bit OS2DASD.DMD
(till FP 12) hadn't that switch either and wasn't lvm aware either.


That been said, I don't think it's wise still to use danidasd.dmd, as she
doesn't develop nor support it anymore.
