This is the biggest #1 problem we need to fix. I can imagine other problems cropping up as well. I can say that I definitely would like to help. My background and experiences are with the 386 CPU, C, DOS, and firmware development for various motherboards. I have enough FreeBSD experience to get everything I need up and running (including recompiling and configuring kernels) but I have very little raw Unix programming experience. If someone can guide me through the workings of the DOSFS interfaces to Unix, I most likely can figure out the rest of the operations. Is there someone out there willing to help me if I get stuck, or can slap my hand when I do something wrong? I really do want to learn this stuff and help. What I'd basically need is: * A list of the known problems * Where it's located in the build tree * Who can mentor me in the Unix environment. ;-) Thanks! -->Neil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Synthcom System's homepage: http://www.synthcom.com/ Europa Upgrade, Synth patches (D-50, Xpander/Matrix 12), used gear pricelist
