Hi NeXTers,
I want to compile and install the mtool package on my NeXTStation.
Can anyone give me a hint what to put into the devices.c file in
order to make it work with the NeXT floppy device driver ??

Thanx Flo

Sorry I didn't announce that on that group. I have compiled the mtools
at version level 2.0.5 and put them on the archives at sonata.cc.purdue.edu
and cs.orst.edu. They contain source, binaries compiled for an internal drive
and a few instructions.

If you don't have ftp access, try to take the lines for SPARC and replace
the device by /dev/rfd0b. Or by the /dev/rsd?h if it is a external SCSI
drive. Replace '?' by the correct number for the device.

Hope it helps,
	Lga.

There is an already compiled version on the archives
(sonata.cc.purdue.edu).
I would have replied directly, but the return address is incompletely
formatted.
