I just installed an Adaptec 1542b as a secondary controller and put
a DOS partition (32 meg) and Interactive Unix 2.2 partition on it (48 meg).
The DOS parition is the first one. I have an ST506 compliant primary
controller (Perstor card) with 2 drives attached. The devices I use for
these two so VP/ix can see them (utilizing "dosmount") are /dev/dsk/0p1
and /dev/dsk/1p1.
The secondary controller naming of partitions is different as the docs
do explain (i.e. my Unix partition is named /dev/dsk/c1d0s5). However,
I could not find a mention by ISC as to whether I can do this or not. If I
can, then it looks like I need to use "mknod" to create the proper major and
minor number of the device (DOS partition). Could some kind soul please
explain how to do it? Thanks!
