Data SCO UNIX error 6, HELP
I have a system here running "SCO UNIX System V/386, Release 3.2" I'm not sure if someone has changed anything, but all of the sudden I get constant scrolling errors...

"*** /etc/getty ttyr006 m (CURRENT TIME/DATE):
Cannot open line ttyr006: No such device or address (error 6)"

this scrolls from ttyr000-ttyr007.

The machine seems to be operating fine otherwise, but when clients connect to it via telnet, it is MUCH slower then ever before... Can anyone help me figure out this error and how to get it to stop


N/M I think I figured out the problem, there was a device attached to accomodate some serial connections and it was disconnected, so I reconnected it and it seems fine now.

mkfs.bfs

MKFS.BFS(8)						       System Administration						       MKFS.BFS(8)

NAME

       mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       mkfs.bfs [options] device [block-count]

DESCRIPTION

       mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device).

       The block-count parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks.  If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used.

OPTIONS

       -N, --inodes number
	      Specify  the  desired  number  of  inodes (at most 512).	If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48-512 is picked
	      depending on the size of the partition.

       -V, --vname label
	      Specify the volume label.  I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -F, --fname name
	      Specify the filesystem name.  I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -v, --verbose
	      Explain what is being done.

       -c     This option is silently ignored.

       -l     This option is silently ignored.

       -h, --help
	      Display help text and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Output version information and exit.  Option -V only works as --version when it is the only option.

EXIT CODES

       The exit code returned by mkfs.bfs is 0 when all went well, and 1 when something went wrong.

SEE ALSO

       mkfs(8).

AVAILABILITY

       The mkfs.bfs command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
