Subject:   copying port from msdos?
Message-ID:  <361F124C.6131F2C7@eee.org>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
hi i copied the netscape port to my msdos partition i would like to know

step by step how to copy the file over to the FREEBSD side so i can
install it. jason wells sent me a e-mail how to do this but i just aint
getting it this is what he sent:
#mount -t /dev/dos_disc_device_name_here /mnt
1st of all i tried a thousand combinations trying to execute this
command
but i still dont know what to exactly type at my keyboard to make this
work I dont know what to put in the dos disc device name area??????
and i dont know what all those space_ etc is suppose to mean.I think if
you tell me exactly what keys to execute this command "then" i might
just get how this all works ..
2nd ) My last Question is when i put in a command Lets say mount -t
it gives me a usage option.I dont know what to exactly type at my key-
board to make the commands work . I feel like im putting a puzzel
together and having fun except! im missing the one piece of puzzle
to finish "and" have the picture make sense.Hopefully you can direct
me to the missing piece so i may enjoy this great operating system.
                              THANKYOU! in advance....
