Yes, color.gz is on the minix fs since it's on a floppy, and since under zipspeak it gets mounted as such on the loopback device. However, I do have minix support compiled in to this kernel. Anything else I should check? Greg On Wed, May 16, 2001 at 10:04:02PM -0400, Frank Carmickle wrote: > Greg > The issue here is that you need to have the filesystem type in your > kernel.

When I try "mount -o loop /color /mnt", my system freezes. However, when I boot into zipspeak on a zipdisk, and do the same thing with the same file, it mounts, and I can access it under /mnt. I've got the loopback device (I'm not referring to the network one either) compiled in to my kernel.
