I am trying to install Yard-SQL from the SuSE Linux 6.0 CD-ROMs. Part of the installaion instructions, concerning the cfg file, state that: 'The device /dev/ryard3 is just an example for using a raw device. Some operating systems (eg Linux) do not have raw devices. Use block devices in these cases.' The cfg lines to which this refers are: # dbspace device size offset F ROOTDBS /dev/ryard3 200000 0 Can somebody please explain what 'raw devices' and 'block devices' are, and what I should put in the cfg file? -- Andrew Tuson -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
