To mount a mac partition you need a driver for it. Nowhere in the whole
A/UX distribution is there a driver for multiple partitions. So you can't
fool the system. Waste of time trying.

I wrote a program to mount multiple partitions. But everytime I go to
release it I think up a new feature to add to it. My problem is that it's
the first real Mac program I have written (I always cheated and used
Prorotyper)
but this is system software from scratch. Everytime I read a new chapter in
IM I find something new to try out. That's Apple's fault. They should have
given us MSDOS.
