I'm running Ultrix 4.3 on a DECstation 5000/25, whose floppy drive is addressed
as /dev/[r]fd0c.  rzdisk refuses to acknowledge this as a "legitimate" disk
since it's name doesn't start with "rrz*" (but simply putting in a link
twixt rfd0c and rrz0c doesn't fool it).  Did I miss something in the 4.3
documentation or is this a bug?
