Hi.  I have a 486 running NetBSD 1.1, which has been very happy until
a few days ago.  I ran the dospart script to locate my dos partition, and
it also found and labeled my Windows NT partition.  Now, whenever I try to ls
a subdirectory, the machine crashes.  Also, it crashes every night at 2:00 
a.m., presumably while trying to do the nightly reports.  (it has done this
every night for the past four days, which is when I ran the dospart script
and it begain to automount /dosc and /dosd)  So, question -- how do I undo
the dospart script (there is really no reason for me to have access to these
partitions under NetBSD), and is this really the cause of the crashes?

Thanks,
Sarah
