You're not getting it are you?  The help syntax that you have invoked is
for WINDOWS!  "cd /D" has no meaning to ksh.  ksh is a UNIX utility which
requires UNIX paths.

Ksh, obviously does not understand MS-DOS syntax.  You cannot use it.  It
certainly doesn't understand the "/D" qualifier which is associated with
the windows command line.
