       NAME
             dosslice - set up UNIX nodes for accessing DOS partitions

       SYNOPSIS
             dosslice [ 0 | 1 ]

       DESCRIPTION
             The dosslice command sets up the UNIX device nodes to allow
             access to the MS-DOS partitions from the UNIX system.  The
             argument to dosslice is the hard disk drive that is being
             used, 0 or 1.  If you omit the argument, the command prompts
             for the drive number.

             The node created for the DOS partition may be
             readable/writable by all.  You make this choice when prompted
             whether to make the DOS partition public.  If the node is not
             made public, then you must enter the user login name at the
             next prompt, and the node is made private to that user.

             If multiple DOS partitions are found, each one is given a
             unique node name. The node name is printed for each DOS
             partition that is found.

             The dosslice command is needed only when DOS is installed
             after UNIX has been installed.
