>Release: NetBSD-1.3.2 CD 12-May-1998
>Environment:
pmax
System: netbsd 1.3.2 pmax
>Description:
Under "Once you've booted the diskimage", the mount command given,
"mount /dev/rzXY", does not work to mount the root filesystem writeable.
I apologize for not recording the exact error message, but it was some-
thing to the effect that /dev/rzXY was an unknown or invalid device.
"mount -t ffs /dev/rzXY /" worked, though.
>How-To-Repeat:
The problem occurs when following the instructions during an instal-
lation.
>Fix:
Update the appropriate section of the NetBSD/pmax Installation
Notes. I believe the command should read
mount /dev/rzXY /
