There is probably subdirectories of /mnt.  Try this:

cd /mnt
mkdir dos
mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 ./dos

Hylafax is definately widely used.  It has tons of features, and very decent
setup scripts.  However, it is also very complex!  Look forward to a lot of
learning :)

1. need help implementing a new link layer protocol, maybe even a new domain family (IPX?)

I've got a project where I need to to implement a protocol between some
units

There is only one hop between all units involved, hence, there is no need
for any network layer routing.  It will be a simple connectionless protocol.
The protocol will use the services of the link layer protocols (MAC/LLC).  A
special LLC/SNAP header will be used to identify this protocol.

I've looked around at all the networking source, but I'm still unsure as to
what needs to be added/altered.  Should I create a new protocol
family(AF_INET,AF_UNIX,etc) for sockets? The protocol sounds somewhat
similar to ipx.  Would it be a good idea to attempt to parallel the ipx
code?  Is that even necessary?  Or can I just register the SNAP packet type
with the network device to receive packets, and to send packets, just call
the device directly with a fully constructed packet?

Basically, I'd like to know what are good references to get a good overview
of the implementation of the networking portion of linux, in addition to
references that are more specific.
