nicholas@cs.uwa.oz.au (Nicholas Yue):Minix does this in /etc/rc, but as linux currently ignores that, the best way is to do it in your .profile (or /etc/.profile). You migh want to use 'mount /dev/hdX /home &> /dev/null' so that eventual multiple mounts won't print error messages. Likewise you can unmount in .logout, but unmounting isn't really necessary (but do remeber to sync). many: This /seems/ to be standard behaviour of unix-kermit, and it is certainly not of my doing. It's a nuisance. Line-locking is done by creating a file in the directory /usr/spool/uucp/LCK, and unless that directory exists, kermit isn't able to lock it. Then to bug-reports and updates: hd.c is buggy, and I'm investigating it. When read-errors occur, weird things can happen, including writing to the disk. This might be the cause of some peoples problems: there is no problem if you have a sector-translating controller (eg IDE etc) that never returns errors. I think I've gotten it working, and hopefully the 0.11 version (due out in about a week) will be correct. 0.11 will also finally be totally self-sustaining: I have gotten the source to bruce evans' assembler and linker, and at least I haven't heard of many problems with mkfs and fsck. I didn't have time to implement symlinks, so there are no real new features: just bug-fixes and enhancements. Thanks to everybody who sent diffs etc. You know who you are, and I've tried to accnowledge everyone in the source. Wolfgang XXXX, who made the German keyboard patch, please mail me your last name. Known bugs still unresolved: at least one machine has trouble reading the floppy, and one 486 seems to have problems with the harddisk even with my new patches. Another machine seems to get divide by zero errors, and I have absolutely no idea why this happens. As it looks now, these won't be corrected in 0.11 unless I can find the reason for them within the week :-( Linus
