i installed a new -stable, first in a month or since i installed vmware.
reinstalled linux_base and vmware2 for good measure.

for a rawdisk win98se partition, i now get 

    "Failed to open rawdisk /usr/compat/linux/dev/hda: not a raw device.
    The device specified by the save raw disk is not a raw disk."

it is the same mknod as /dev/ad0, the real multiboot disk.

any clues?

randy
