Todd) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd Subject: shutdown -todos, now she works, now she don't Message-ID: <703@cyclone.sbi.com> Date: 31 Jul 92 20:23:13 GMT Organization: Salomon Brothers, Inc Lines: 10 I have a hacked-together clone, 386sx, AHA1542B, 200M SCSI drive. I initially set up a 50M DOS partition, then had 386bsd install itself on a 100M partition. ``shutdown -todos'' whined that it couldn't make the DOS partition bootable. On reconsidering, I blew away the drive and started over, this time with a 20M DOS partition. Now ``shutdown -todos'' works fine. Maybe it doesn't understand 16-bit FATs? -Bennett bet@sbi.com
