Houdy!

First of all: thanks to all of those who gave me advice on my ZIP drive
problems of a couple weeks ago...

Eventhough kernels will not successfully build on this system,
remaking/insting the modules apparently did the trick.

mount -tmsdos /dev/hdb1 # or hdb4

Is what now works.

Q: Has anyone ever tried creating a linux-compatable filesystem on an
existing zipdisk partition (over top of a dos format)?
Q: If so: were there any bad effects?

Now:

Weather before or after boot is complete, I still need a method for
redirecting the console to something other than the console: weather it be
a local /dev device, or some network device.

I plan to be using systems in which noone will have access to the console,
and therefore I have to have quick access to what ever is comming on the
console (I can probably count on syslog-ish processes to give me most of
it, but...).

Does anyone have any idea on this?

Luke
