Is there some tricky way to do this on the root filesystem without having to boot from a floppy? Root is mounted even if you boot single-user, so tunefs says "device busy" if you try to use it on the block device. It's possible to use it on the character device, but then the change doesn't stick. -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
