In order to do so, I need to load the driver as a kernel module at boot time, but nowhere is it documented (that I can find) how to specify the device. I can lsdev and see disk0a: ffs and disk0c: ffs, but if I try to load disk0a:filename, it's not found. neither is /disk0a/filename or /dev/disk0a/filename. Neither does the odd syntax the earlier stage uses of 0:fd(0,a)/filename. My next step is to head for the source I guess... --=20 Alan Batie ______ alan.batie.org Me alan at batie.org \ / www.qrd.org The Triangle PGPFP DE 3C 29 17 C0 49 7A \ / www.pgpi.com The Weird Numbers 27 40 A5 3C 37 4A DA 52 B9 \/ spamassassin.taint.org NO SPAM!
