I made it pretty simply with dd if=/dev/ad1 of=file I can get vnconfig working fine with an iso, but I try somethig similiar with my image and I get this output and error: tim# ls maxtorbackup tim# vnconfig vn0c ./maxtorbackup tim# mount_msdos /dev/vn0c /mnt mount_msdos: /dev/vn0c: Invalid argument The disk was msdos ver 6 and mounting it worked correctly so I figured this would too. I read the manpage and can't see where I am going wrong. Did I need certain options to dd when I made the image to get this to work? Help would be greatly appreciated.
