I'm having some problems installing a new hardrive on my
sco-xenix system.

The system is a ibm ps/2 model 80 and it has and esdi drive in
place, I'm trying to add another.

I go through sco's /etc/mkdev hd procedure which works fine (and
takes about 3 hours).  I tell it I want three file systems,
usr1, usr2, and news (660 meg drive), but when I try 

/etc/mkdev fs /dev/usr1 /usr1

I get an error message complaining about a bad mount address, and
can not access /dev/usr1.

What am I doing wrong?
