[comp.unix.xenix] Answer to SCRATCH which works

Thanks for all the suggestions on the reboot, fsck, manual entering of
SCRATCHFILE problem. The solution that seems to work best was adding
the -t option, with the scratch file being written to /tmp in root.
The final line in the /etc/default/filesys file is now:
bdev=/dev/u1 mountdir=/u1 rcmount=yes fsckflags='-y -t /tmp/scratch'
