1. Have a recent backup, just in case.
If you don't, just set this aside until after your next backup run.
Also make sure you haven't misplaced the kernel source tar archive.
2. Install the HPFS sources in the kernel tree:
cd /usr/src/linux
patch -p1 < /path/hpfs-0.9.diff
3. Rebuild the kernel:
make config; make dep; make zlilo
4. Try it.
reboot
mount -t hpfs /dev/hdxn /mnt
ls /mnt
If you put hpfs partitions in /etc/fstab and use 'fsck -A' in /etc/rc,
it will try to run a nonexistent fsck.hpfs. As a stopgap you can do
ln -s /bin/true /bin/fsck.hpfs
Also included in this distribution is setboot, a Linux utility to
tell OS/2 Boot Manager what system to load at the next reboot.
Typical usage:
setboot dos -- to reboot to dos
setboot C: -- to reboot to whatever is on C:
setboot is actually a script that runs set-boot followed by reboot.
set-boot is the program that stores the information for boot manager.
You'll probably want to edit setboot to use the rebooting procedure
of your choice (shutdown or whatever).
