I tested the SDC using a card that had a CC3 directory and within a
SINISTAR folder, multiple disks game. For this one has specify the
directory name as the mount point, for example:

DRIVE 0,"CC3/SINISTAR

This will look inside the directory for files named DISKn where 'n' is a
digit from 1 to 9. The command will initially mount the file with the
lowest index number. Once the game is started and begins to load, at the
prompt to switch disks press the button, it will switch to the next higher
numbered disk or rotate back to the beginning -- at each button release the
LED will blink 'n' times to indicate which disk is mounted.
