It seems to choke after the first 512 byte sector of any file larger than that
size. What is actually involved in preparing the rvd packs for use as a DOS
filesystem? I mounted each drive in exclusive mode and ran 'mkrfs', which said
it was doing it (though it didn't spend any time on it that I could tell) and
spun the drive down. I can make directories ad infinitum, but try to copy files
larger than 512 bytes into the drive and it chokes. Help!
(I copied jerry in because he might still be around and might remember what-all
was involved in this stage of the process....)
Thanks!
Rob
