These may be two completely differenty problems, but they seem related.
1) My computer doesn't seem to recognize my parallel port. It says polling
lpt2 on bootup, but I get a "device not configured" error message if I try
and copy a text file to /dev/lpt2. Shouldn't that work? Is there anyway I
can print on my local HP 5L?
2) I can't seem to mount my dos drive. It is my first hard drive and is
recognized as wd0 on boot up.
I have tried
mount -t msdos /dev/wd0a /dos
with the letters a through f with the only variation from the normal error
message "device not configured", being invalid argument when I use
/dev/wd0d. What am I doing wrong here?
