Very Computer

I'm trying to mount my first partition.  Which is my Dos partition and
Redhat flashes the following error message when booting

Mount:  mount point /dosc does not exist

I get the same error message when I try to do a

mount /dev/hda1 /dos -t msdos

Any help would be appreciated

When you mount a filesystem, you have to mount it *on* something--kind
of like a plug into a receptacle. This receptacle is a directory, so
what mount is telling you (in its own way) is that you don't have a
directory called /dosc to mount the filesystem on.

The fix is simple: mkdir /dosc

The same goes for /dos.

Good luck!

i.e. mkdir /dosc or mkdir /dos
