Just wanted to mention this for its humor ... everybody needs that on Monday, right? :-) First off, understand that I've been thinking about writing a tongue-in-cheek article called something like "FreeBSD for MSDOS users" ... mostly for my own entertainment, I suppose. Anyway, this is likely comfy for ex-DOS people. Make sure you've created /floppy, then put this in /root/.cshrc or /root/.profile, or wherever you keep root's aliases... here's my line from /root/.cshrc: alias a: "mount_msdosfs /dev/fd0 /floppy && cd /floppy && ls -l" :-D Kevin Kinsey DaleCo, S.P.
