[coLinux-users] Re: Some things I'm not understanding about 0.7.1

[Ewan G. <ewa...@gm...>]

Playing around with this further, it seems that the problem is that in
0.7.1 there is no support for cobd beyond 4. IOW, if I change which
devices are specified as cobd5 and cobd6, then whatever devices are
called that stop showing up, even if the file worked just fine as
cobd3 or 4.

Anything I can do at this point - beyond try to remember how to program in =
C?
