With DosMerge 1.0 (and not 0.2 or 0.3) you add the following line to the file
/etc/dosdev
_._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.
dmouse d .23c-23f.5..     LogiTech Bus Mouse
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

where:	
	dmouse	= direct attach mouse, the "logical" name
	d	= direct attach
		  (v = virtual, r = real, f = file name, l = drive letter)
	23c-23f	= io port addresses
	5	= interrupt line
	..	= No DMA channels
		  The rest of the line is a comment


DosMerge versions before 1.0 won't work with many direct attach devices.
