Why no /dev/root? http://www.mcsr.olemiss.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?root+7 "The standard system with SCSI drives usually has /dev/root linked to /dev/dsk/dks0d1s0,/dev/swap linked to /dev/dsk/dks0d1s1, and (if / and /usr are seperate filesystems, a usrroot partitioning), /dev/usr linked to /dev/dsk/dks0d1s6." So /dev/root is normally a symbolic link to your root filesystem device, eg. /dev/hda1 (if you are not using devfs) or /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 (if you use devfs); -- 11:54am up 10 days, 23:05, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 O // <==-} -> .--._.-^-(.} )' /{ ( \d ./\, ) -._.- > / / `\ /' GNU -=LFS*1482=- I am not 31337.
