What were you trying to do?
Play around with a zip drive.
What's wrong:
I'm looking at what is probably a standard distribution zip disk:
% mdir z:
Volume in drive Z is ZIP-100
Volume Serial Number is 15F9-2C71
Directory for Z:/
tour <DIR> 05-12-1997 11:49a
dosstuff <DIR> 05-12-1997 11:50a
register <DIR> 05-12-1997 11:50a register
w31stuff <DIR> 05-12-1997 11:50a
w95stuff <DIR> 05-12-1997 11:51a
5 file(s) 0 bytes
27 344 896 bytes free
If I then run
% /mit/mtools/bin/mdir y:
Trace/BPT trap (core dumped)
Looking at the core file, we see:
% gdb /mit/mtools/bin/mdir core

What should have happened:
It shouldn't have dumped core.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
I notice that the mtools.conf lists y: without a partition= tag.
Maybe that has something to do with it.
