Hi there!
I'm setting up an A/UX system (on a IIci) for the first time, but I
ran into some problems, and have a few questions. I should also
mention that I was an admisistrator on a AT&T 3b2 several years ago
(but I got better) so I'm not a complete UNIX novice.
First problem is the missing hard disk partition. I'm using
SilverLining to partiton a Quantum 210. I've got a total of 9
partitions, 5 of which belong to UNIX. They are (USE): A/UX Root &
Usr slice 0, A/UX Swap slice 1, A/UX Autorecovery, Free A/UX slice
3, and A/UX Usr slice 2 in that physical order on the disk (the Mac
partiton is between the last two).
My problem is that I can't access slice 3. There is no
/dev/dsk/c6d0s3 ! I've set up the /etc/disktab from the info given
by SilverLining. Please help, I'd like to put /users in this
partiton.
I also hav a non-Appletalk DeskWriter and would like to be able to
use it. I know this has been discussed, so would some kind soul
summarize for me or point me to an archive of this?
Another thing which has been discussed here is using a SyQuest
removeable drive with A/UX. I would like to be able to both mount
file systems, and use it for backup. Can anyone send me info?
Well, before I clog up the net, I'll finish up.
Thanx a ton!
