Could You tell me > what does it all mean? And how can I use floppy and other partition of > my hard disk? sincerelly Lev The hurdish way to "mount" devices is to attach a translator to a node, using the settrans command. For a floppy, it would look like: settrans -cga /mnt/floppy /hurd/fatfs /dev/fd0 You can have the help of settrans by doing settrans --help All translators are "normal" programs, so you should be able to have help of themselves too (/hurd/fatfs --help for example). -- Gael Le Mignot "Kilobug" - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://kilobug.free.fr GSM : 06.71.47.18.22 (in France) ICQ UIN : 7299959 Fingerprint : 1F2C 9804 7505 79DF 95E6 7323 B66B F67B 7103 C5DA Member of HurdFr: http://hurdfr.org - The GNU Hurd: http://hurd.gnu.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
