Right, I'm now running the kernel 'prot-4704' and the pmap_enter messages
have disappeared together with the inode ones. Still can't get UnixFS to
access the /usr partition. I don't know if it is definately e or not, but
it worked when I copied all of the sets across.
If I use the MountHD4a file - the /usr directory is empty, as with the
other mount-points.
Do I have to reformat and start again with the prot-4704 kernel (whats the
difference between that, and the voyager one?), or can I get UnixFS
working again?
I've also had to create a link in '/usr/local/lib' called X11 to
'/usr/local/X11R6.1/lib' for fvwm to run properly, are these directories
in the correct place?
Thanks..
