In the hp9000 model 236 manual "Peripheral Installation Guide", vol 2, we are told the info for mknod for installing the disk drivers. This can also be found in /etc/mkdev. I ran mkdev with the correct lines uncommented, and the files fd.0, fd.1, rfd.0, and rfd.1 were created in the /dev directory. I then tried to run mediainit on one of the drives, but got the error message "no such device". What am I doing wrong? Is there something I'm forgetting to do? -Matt ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UUCP: {ihnp4,pyramid,akgua}!iuvax!burdick ARPA: burdick@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu Matt Burdick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UUCP: {ihnp4,pyramid,akgua}!iuvax!burdick ARPA: burdick@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu Matt Burdick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
