  11. Assuming you are using HP-UX, create device files for compressed and 
  12. uncompressed drives. Bits 6 and 7 of the minor number control compression:
  13.  
  14. mknod /dev/rmt/0mn c 54 0x0e0103   # Uncompressed
  15. mknod /dev/rmt/0mnc c 54 0x0e01c3  # Compressed
  16.  
  17. For umcompressed use the "0mn" device file, for compressed the "0mnc" file.
