The formatting was to use the entire disk for aux with a 2 meg Mac partition for booting. The defaults provided by the formatting program were used and aux was installed under the "generic hard disk" entry provided by the aux installer. The 2 meg part is clearly ok, but when I open an aux finder window I'm told I have 44 megs in the disk (about right, I think) and less than 2 megs available. I recall an article in this newsgroup about aux needing some special coaxing to use extra space but I can't find it in the index on aux.support.apple.com Could somebody either repeat the advice or let me know where to find it? Many thanks bob prohaska ps: cu seems to work ok in this (second) installation, ie, it takes the lock off tty0 when it's done. Come to think of it, it no longer announces that tty0 is locked in the first place! What gives?
