OS/2 drivers or DOS drivers??

OS/2 drivers are loaded at boottime, but OS/2 does not suffer from the memory
limitations like DOS. :)

DOS drivers can be loaded in OS/2 at boottime in config.sys (if that driver is 
required for all DOS sessions - I haven't encountered that case), or specified 
in the DOS properties for a particular DOS session (DOS_DEVICE) then that DOS
driver is only loaded in that DOS session where it is specified.
