Boot machine without media in the jaz drive. Note the /dev/da10 device entry. 2. Insert a jaz disk containing an msdos fs in the first slice. Trying to mount /dev/da10s1 fails since no entry has been created. The /dev/da10s1 entry is created after opening /dev/da10 for writing(!) using open(2) in a small C programme. >Fix: Unknown. Fix devfs or remove it (nobody needs this anyway). >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
