Hi,

Is there anybody out, who also has problems with reading or writing
from a tos hard disk partition in minix, using the 'tos -r' or 'tos -d'
utitility??????? 

When I read a file or ask for a directory on a tos disk in drive 
a or b (/dev/dd0 /dev/dd1),  then there is no problem in reading this.
However when i do the same on a hard disk partition , for example
/dev/hd0 /dev/hd1 then I get a 'memory fault - core dumped'.

Can it be that no hard disks are supported by the tos utitily, or
is there a fix for this problem.  

Thanks in advance.

Geert.
