System type, version: (VS2000) Version 6.0R
System name: kremvax
What's wrong:
There are no entries in /etc/disktab for rx33 (VS2000) or rx50 (VS2)
floppy drives; thus `newfs' won't work. Someone should find the
``right'' parameters and post them. Note that fd1.2m does NOT work,
giving the error
>newfs: /dev/rfloppy: can't figure out file system partition
What should have happened:
``newfs /dev/[r]floppy rx33'' should work.
