Reboot As for getting a bigger disk, you've got two options. Reinstall on a larger disk image, or just mount a larger disk image onto the file system. To reinstall, read the directions in README.networked.211BSD and docs/2.11bsd_setup.txt . If you do a fresh reinstall, you will need to recompile the kernel (as described in docs/2.11bsd_setup.txt) to get networking support. Or you can create a second, larger, disk image with dd, attach it, and label, format, and mount it from within the emulator.
