>Description:
/src/distrib/notes/amiga/hardware:
1) below the table of recommended HD partition sizes stands:
"As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than needed."
but the difference in the table is only 10 MB.
2) In the SCSI hot adapters list, Fastlane is written "FastLane", in the
note at the end (**) "Fastlane".
3) it -> the
4) in the (****) note should be mentioned, that HD floppy drives get only
detected as such if a HD floppy is inserted while booting the machine.
/src/distrib/notes/amiga/prep:
fileystem -> file system
/src/distrib/notes/amiga/xfer:
set_name.nnn -> set_name.xx
>How-To-Repeat:
Read /src/distrib/notes/amiga/{hardware,prep,xfer}.
>Fix:
Apply the following patches:

***) SCSI scanner support is machine independent, so it should
work, but hasn't been tested yet on most Amiga configurations.
! There are reports that it Mustek and HP Scanjet hang if
accessed from the A3000. This might apply to other
33C93-Adapters, too.
****) Our floppy driver doesn't notice when mounted floppies are
write-protected at the moment. Your floppy will stay
unchanged, but you might not notice that you didn't write
! anything due to the buffer cache.
