I 'know' I will stay with FreeBSD because so far everything is better in BSD but thats just my opinion. I have one small problem though. I don't understand the handbook about configuring or mount my Zip Drive. I have tried a couple of things and I know I'm atleast getting close. I try using this command mount_msdos /dev/afd0 /mn and I have tried mount_msods /dev/afd04 /mnt and I can hear it making a noise like it's trying to mount the damn thing but I get a invalid argument error. So maybe someone on this list can give me a 'simple' way to get this working and soon as I get it working I can go read some docs on it myself on putting the ufs on it and so forth. Thanks and I hope someone can help me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: Bryan Cassidy GAIM: bsdsys Yahoo Messenger: bsdsys To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
