I've just installed 386BSD on a 486/33 with the ETEQ chipset and a 80
meg IDE drive (will be upgraded to 200 in 1.5 months).  For some reason,
/dev/lp does not install when the system is installed.  Is there any way
for me to manually do it?  I've tried mknod to get the correct file, but
it just dumps the the screen instead of lpt1:

Thanks.
