I heard some complaints about the TOS command in MINIX-ST lately.
If you use something like 'tos -w /dev/hd1 foo < foo' from MINIX,
the information on the corresponding TOS hard disk partition (in
this case C:) will be pretty much destroyed !!! If it makes any
difference, the 'bad luck' guys used a SH205 hard disk.
If there's anybody who had the same problem and has made (or seen) a
patch for 'tos' I'd very much like to have it -- I'm not in the
right mood to try 'tos -w' myself to see if it really fails :-)
Thanks for your time,
