Hey, I've got a couple questions for you UNIX hackers.
How do I add later a bad block to the bad block table under Microport 3.0e?
I can do an /etc/hdscan but is there a way to add a block explicitly?
Next dumb question: With network services stuff installed, is there a
way to set up an RFS link to another 386 UNIX box say with a simple
serial streams device?
Third dumb question: With DosMerge and Turbo C version 2 installed, Turbo C
compiles are very very slow (I composed this while the BGIDEMO was compiling!)
Running an sar showed that the system remains 96% idle during the
compile. The ps command showed that 'dos' and 'dossvr' where at a normal
20 nice value show it should be able to grab the system. Is this a case
there DosMerge assumes that the dos program is waiting for input and thus
gives it very little CPU time since the intregrated environment allows you
to abort the compile with a keystroke? How can I get this to work better?
Thanks,
