- Hi,
-
- I've tried to install emacs-1857 on my ATARIST.
- But when I tried to 'dumpemac' the temacs the dumping
- process was stopped, because it could not file
- the lisp file paragraphs. I realized that this was
- because I have the standard TOS filenaming method
- (i.e., 8+3 chars). Therefore I've tried to install the mfs055
- package on one partition (part. g:\). Everything went well but I still cannot
- write long filenames on this partition.
-
- What I've done was:
-
- 1. MiNT 095 running.
- 2. minixfs 055 installed (booting phase of mint).
- 3. minit -P -V g:
- 4. --- booting ---
- 5. mfsconf g: -d b -x n
-
- the last step was repeated 3 or 4 times with different options for
- allways the same partition.
-
- Long filenames are still not useable for me on this partition.
-
- Is anybody around who can help me. I need to have long filenames
- on my disk (not only for emecs 1857 installation!).
-
- Thaxs a lot
