I just installed ultrix 4.2 from cdrom. Thank you digital for not providing an upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2. Doing a complete install really made my day (or night i should say). After the installation i wanted to load all of our unbundled software. Alas i was unable to mount our lovely new RRD40. If I execute % mount /dev/rz4c/mnt i get ufs_mount: /dev/rz4c on /mnt: Restricted operation on file system If i execute % mount -t cdfs /dev/rz4c /mnt I get cdfs_mount: Unknown descriptor type Yes i do have options CDFS pseudo-device cdfs configured in the kernel. Any ideas? thanks much - jc John Clyne (clyne@ncar.ucar.edu) National Center for Atmospheric Research P.O. Box 3000, Boulder, Colorado 80307 (303) 497-1236

That's what the "restricted operation" complaint is about. The file system type "cdfs" is for ISO 9660 format CDs. The distribution CD is in UNIFILE format. That's what the "unknown descriptor type" message is complaining about. Hope this clears things up. Frank

I understand the above -t cdfs qualifier only works with 4.2). > > Yes i do have > > options CDFS > pseudo-device cdfs > > configured in the kernel. > > > Any ideas? Yes, try mount -r /dev/rz4c /mnt Notice the -r indicating that it is a read only volume. > > thanks much - jc You're welcome! > > John Clyne (clyne@ncar.ucar.edu) > National Center for Atmospheric Research > P.O.

By the way our GUIDE to Upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1 was wrong !!! It says : mount -r /dev/rzN /mnt Where N is the unit LOGIC NUMBER It could say : mount -r /dev/rzNc /mnt isn't it ?? I has some trouble discovering this :-) Bye. Jose A. Vela Avila josevela@mtecv2.mty.itesm.mx ITESM
