Rosenblatt) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: [FreeBSD] Mounting a DOS floppy from Install kernel Date: 15 Nov 1994 22:35:09 -0500 Organization: The Pipeline Lines: 16 Sender: amir@pipeline Message-ID: <3abuld$oif@pipeline.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: pipeline.com I have been told that my network card (3Com 3C509) is not supported by the base kernel that the install program in FreeBSD 2.0-ALPHA sets up. Another Net denizen kindly e-mailed me a kernel he had recompiled that supported that card. I uudecoded it and popped it onto a DOS floppy but don't know the proper syntax for the mount command needed to mount the floppy. Can it even be done? If not, can it read a floppy created by Solaris? ANy help would be greatly appreciated. -Amir -- ._. __ __ ___ / \/~\/~\/~\/~~\ \ \/ / | , }/~~\/~~\/~~~}/~\~\/~~\/~\ /~~~\/~~~~~~~\ { ' | | | ' } } { | \| ' L ~| ~}| | :<| L{ ' }~| | |~ \_L_/\_\/_/\_/|_\_\ |__|o |_|\_\__/\__/\___}\_\_/\__/|__/ \_L_/ |_|_|
