- Wow. What an answer! ;-)
-
- I looked in the merge default file (I think /etc/dos*), where it said:
- dos +adcom1 +ae:=/dev/dsk/dos
-
- I noticed that there was no /dev/dsk/dos, so I linked the appropriate
- /dev/dsk/xxx to it, and all was well, after I opened up the permissions.
-
- You might need to look at fdisk to determine the proper /dev/dsk entry.
