I read an article that said the DOS partiton is mountable with or with out VP/ix with the following command: mount -f DOS /dev/dsk/0p0 /dos where /dos is a subdirectory. When I enter this command I get the error that is not a valid fs. Is it possible to mount a DOS partition with AT&T UNIX 3.2 w/o VP/ix? If so how? Thanks, Jeff
