Subject: Correct use of bind and fs/tarfs?
Date: Mon, 25 Sep 1995 19:53:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19950925235307.qa1Ev9JhISzltLas3HaXW5Fks-pJlVFd9mHtsFIxwGo@z> (raw)

    From:	Frank Ashford <fashford@crl.com>
    
    I am able to bind the SCSI controller with:
    
    	bind '#S' /dev
    
    This produces directories 0 though 7 and scsiid in my /dev directory.
    
    I get no errors from:
    
    	fs/tarfs -m /n/tapefs /dev/3
    
    I am unable to:
    
    	tar -cvf /n/tapefs *
    
tarfs provides a read only file-system interface to a tar file.
/n/tapefs is a directory which tar will not like.
you just want to run tar straight onto the device (/dev/?/data)
