Hi,

I have a '486 running Linux and an A3000 running NetBSD-1.1.
If I try to mount the Linux machine onto the BSD one it does
themount, I can read and I can write as well. However, I can not
create files.
That is, everything else (permissions) being ok, I can touch an existing
file on the linux box, I can append to it but I can not create any new files.
This seems like as if the directory files would be r/o everything else r/w.

The linus side is probably OK, because all mount stuff works with other linuxes
and even with the Amiga AmiTCP package.

Next question, I converted my Picasso-II setup using the provided tool
(Gateway CD, NBSD-1.1) to grfconfig mode file. None of the modes other than
the 1 bit deep ones are accepted by grfconfig. What could be the problem ?

Thanks in advance,

Zoltan
