Re: ibm microdrive and file systems

Hi,

I have a microdrive working fine in my iPaq. I get along just great
with it, I had mine stuck into a PC card adaptor and then shoved into
the PCMCIA slot of the expansion pack. I'm thinking about getting
one of the adaptors with CF and PC card slots...

/dev/hda

I loaded the dosfs support, since I like to transfer files around,
and my microdrive was already formatted as vfat.

I mount it with "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ibm -tvfat

flash is mount as the root filesystem, there is a ramdisk mounted as /mnt/ramfs
