Other follups correctly suggest that the DOS partition should be
first.

Wrong.  The device name should be /dev/dsk/0p0.  The release notes
incorrectly state that you should use /dev/dsk/0p1.  However, the
VP/ix manual says that you need to use 0p0.

I have noticed some peculiarities here:
mount -f DOS /dev/dsk/0p0 /dos will not work.  You must use
0p1 here.  The 'D /dev/dsk/0p0' statement in vpix.cnf mounts
the drive through VP/ix.  You CANNOT do both.
