Can NetBSD be configured to boot off an MSDOS-formatted partition?
I see a config option in the kernel configuration file to say what type of
disk the root is on. I also see old postings from 1996 about some of the
potential problems with nodes and permisions.
However, if it cannot be done, then how can a Windows boot off another
partition of the same physical disk and see NetBSD's root files? Is there
an ffs driver for Windows?
Thanks,
Chris.
