[olug] Unix Tip: MOUNTING CD'S ON HPUX

[Jay Swackhamer]

Using pfsd under HPUX works ok, you should always unmount and kill the
pfs process's when not needed, if the process's have problems(which they
often do) the will hang and any process doing a 'bdf' or disk check
will also hang.

You can also use a cdcase option on the normal mount for some cd's
