What on Earth is the device name for the floppy? I've been looking it up so I can install it on an old laptop I've got hanging around, but it just isn't working. I've tried every name I can think of, but none of them work.
I just want to mount /usr for goodness' sake - I know I've done it before, but all of the resources have all bloody well disappeared!

Thanks, fd0p2 worked .
EDIT1: Now I'm part way through installing it, I'm thinking of software - can anyone tell me where I can get any from? At the least, I would like Rogue and GCC!
EDIT2: Oh, and the MAN pages, I forgot to disk them when I made the disk set I have .

Try the packages done for Minix3 (also the binaries). The disk format is different (and incompatible), but the exec format is the same, so you could probably build a cross-compiler on some Linux box!
