Sorry for the reposting, but I lost some NetBSD Mailinglist mails
yesterday. I would like to explain my BFFS 1.5 beta problem in detail.
What I would like to do ... I would like to create a DOSDriver for
the NetBSD_root: partition (200 MB). This one is on a SCSI Drive
(ID 6). I would like to be able to mount it at convenience. In
other words, I opt for the Mountlist (DOSDriver) solution, and not
for the RDB option where I I would have to add the BFFSFileSystem
into the RDB. This would mean that the NetBSD_root partition is
mounted at all times AmigaOS boots up.
Here what HDToolbox says about my NetBSD_root: partition:

When I mount the partition from the Shell, nothing happens.
When I make a dir to the partition, a requester pops up which says:
"No disk present in device NETBSD_ROOT" (uppercase!?!?)

Could not get information for NetBSD_root:
