LFN Support

I got a project that I can use LFN support on (or some other method that would fit the requirements):

1) Needs to be able to fit on a Windows ME/98 startup diskette.
2) Needs to run when the startup diskette in #1 is booted.
3) Needs to work under any and all circumstances and ways the drive might be formatted (FAT16, FAT32/VFAT, DOS emulation under NTFS, etc). This means there may or may not be either a short name or a long name associated with the physical disk in question.

Does anyone have any ideas on this, in terms of good code to support it through Turbo Pascal, or driver emulation, or a Win32 loader for DOS (I have the code working already both there and in DOS with no LFN)?
