OK, someone help me out here :)
I was going to try this with a range of floppies (4.8, 4.9, 5.1, 5.2,
etc), but I can't figure out what to do with splitfs.c
gcc -o splitfs /usr/src/lib/libstand/splitfs.c
/usr/lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':
/usr/lib/crt1.o(.text+0x85): undefined reference to `main'
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o: In function `splitfs_open':
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o(.text+0x239): undefined reference to `fgetstr'
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o: In function `splitfs_seek':
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o(.text+0x695): undefined reference to `panic'
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o(.text+0x801): undefined reference to `panic'
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o(.data+0x10): undefined reference to `null_write'
/tmp/cc1Xbt2V.o(.data+0x1c): undefined reference to `null_readdir'


I'm guessing that's not the right thing to do.
