- Hi Linuxers,
- I've noticed two problems so far with the .97 pl1 root disk.
-
- First, the mount -t msdos command doesn't seem to work. I've tried to
- mount -t /dev/fd1H1440 /mnt as others have suggested (using fd1, or b:
- drive which is a 1.44 3.5" drive) and I always get "mnt busy" errors.
-
- Second, when I pipe to head I get a "Broken pipe" message. I tried:
-
- ls -al | head -20
-
- it displayed the first 20 lines, and then gave the Broken pipe message.
- :w
- :q
