Hi,

Here are some patches to make pcfs work with dos filesystems
on hard disks.  Don't use an unpatched pcfs on hard disks.

To mount a hard disk dos filesystem:
- use disklabel to define a 386bsd partition that covers the
  area occupied by the dos filesystem.  Set this partition's
  type to MSDOS with disklabel.  When you use disklabel in
  this way it will write a 386bsd bootblock on the
  first block of the disk.  This wipes out the dos partition
  table.  I don't know of a way to prevent
  it from doing this.  So, I just used dd to save a copy of
  the dos bootblock, and restored it after disklabel was done.
- Then, mount the filesystem.  Example:
	mount -t pcfs /dev/sd0b /mnt

Don't put a dos filesystem in partition "a" of your hard disk.
This will corrupt that dos filesystem.  This is because the kernel
thinks partition "a" covers the disk label and attempts to write
in the area where the label is thought to be are disallowed.
Unfortunately the first block of the fat in a hard disk dos
filesystem lives in this spot where the label might be.

There is a problem with moving directories in pcfs.  It does
NOT corrupt your filesystem.  Here's a description of how to
see the problem.

	Assume there are 3 directories on the filesystem.  One
	called abc and under it is one called def.  Under def
	is one called 123.

	mount -t pcfs /dev/fd0a /mnt
	cd /mnt
	mv abc/def def
	cd def/123
	pwd
		/mnt/def/123
	cd /mnt
	mv def abc
	cd abc/def
	pwd

	At this pointed the diagnostic "pwd: No such file or directory"
	will appear.  At this point we are(?) in directory /mnt/abc/def.

	cd ..
	pwd
		/mnt

	So, the cd .. moved us up 2 levels to def's old parent.

Once the vnode cache is flushed of the related vnodes this
works ok.  I'm looking at this problem.
