Thanks for the tip.
BTW, I'm finding it impossible to mount a FAT pcmcia storage device. I can
see it detected, there's a device for it in /dev/dsk, I can dd that device
and get the FAT header, but it won't mount with -F pcfs or any other
combinations of partitions/etc that I can think of. Nothing on the
internet, any advice?
Thanks again,
Dan.
