Hi.

There is no command to change drives in Linux.
>>From the point of view of a user, all files exist in a single file 
system.  

The fact the prompt in Linux looks like a DOS prompt is misleading.  It
will be worth your time to find a good introduction to Linux book.
Most distros have a reference manual that explains basic concepts.
Also, you might want to look on the empowerment zone site for a Linux
newby book.

Hope this helps.
          Kenny
