This is probably a basic question that has been answered a hundred times
in this newsgroup.

Is there a standard mount procedure defined somewhere for mounting
the "/dev/hd?" special files to directories in MINIX ST?

I just reformatted my hard drive and would like to set up the mounts
in a fairly standard way.
 
I know that in my AIX system that
 
/dev/hd1 is for /u
/dev/hd2 is for /usr
/dev/hd3 is for /
/dev/hd4 is paging space (of course I wouldn't have this in Minix)
/dev/hd5 is for kernel dumps (kind of useless if I'm not a system programmer)
/dev/hd6 is for /tmp

Is there something similar for MINIX.  I would like to comform to the
world in this matter, but only if the world comforms to a standard.

Thanks for the information.
