Hi all, I have just recently finished the main part of creating Minix386. I have created it on just one disk which can boot up from drive A and copy the file system to ram to serve as the root file system. To do this I had to add a few lines to the config file like which is the rootdevice, how large and things like that. Apparently I cannot get the ls command to work!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Other commands like df cat ln work without a hassle. The ls though saids cannot execute!!!!!!!!!! I have checked my path, permissions and the disk itself for any bad blocks. Nothing! When I reset the config file to its initial mode where it uses drive A as the root device and does not use a RAM disk ls works fine!! What on earth can be happening???? Any advice would be more than greatly appreciated. What can be so special with the ls command? I made the disk following John's instructions and after reading the documentation for Shoelace and the likes. Just to be sure that ls was made correctly I redid it but still no change.
