When I was mounted 400Mb DOS partition r/w everything was just fine. But once I've tried to mount another 1Gb DOS partition from the second hard. Well, I will never do it again, thanks. My /dev directory was erased and some /bin files. It took me two days to restore neccessary files and make my box alive. And after all I still cannot creat /dev/wd0 file so I was forced to exchange my disks and booting from /dev/wd1, not /dev/wd0. Resume: DON'T MOUNT >400Mb DOS PARTITIONS or you will nuts with deadful system. Hope some sunny day this bug (don't tell me it is a feature) will be fixed, huh? Thanks for attention, Vlad D. Nebolsin.
