Hi,
I am working on a project where I have to move some parts files from an
old Unix server. I have tared the files to floppy disc, but I can't
mount them.
After doing some reasearch I have found that the SCO Unix ver 3.2 uses a
System V filesystem I think. From the article that I have read I need to
add this filesystem to my kernel to be able to mount and read the floppy
discs.
Can anyone help me with this I have never recomipled my kernel before.
Then I should be able to use
# mount -t sysv /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
I have found in the .config file under misc filesystems that I can turn
on sysv filesytem. I am not sure what to do after that. Is it better to
make it a module or to compileit into the kernel?
kernel
CONFIG_SYSV_FS=y
as a modual
CONFIG_SYSV_FS=m
If I go the modual way where do I find the modual? I would use modprobe
to install it right?
What commands do you run to recompile the kernel? Do I run
make menuconfig?
I have been reading alot but not finding what I need. I have a fresh
install off Centos 4.2 just for this purpose so if I mess it up that s
okay I will start again.
I am sure this is so simple once you have done it once.
Thanks
Scandog
