Unless it's changed, it used to be:
1. cd /
2. fixperm -c -dHD1 /etc/inst.perms
3. fdisk -f /dev/rhd10
4. Write down numbers of partitions that contain Xenix
5. exit fdisk
6. divvy -b 1 -c 1 -p 1 -v <partition number>
7. name all divisions you wish to preserve (ie. /u /usr2 etc.)
8. quit divvy
9. i to install table
10. mount should now work
11. mkdev fs /dev/devicename /directory
I think this should all be documented in your release notes, so check
me on this incase I had a memory lapse.
