Quick question about DIRBUF

$

Hi

In the CP/M DPH table is an entry called DIRBUF. The DRI documentation describes it as a 128 byte scratchpad area for directory operations. It also says that all drives use the same DIRBUF.

Is there any relationship between the size of DIRBUF and the value of the DPB's DRM entry (maximum number of files the directory can hold -1)?

Cheers
