The problem is that the disk doesn't have a corrosponding UNIX device in /dev and it seems that there is now way to create one. Usually bsd UNIX systems have a script called MAKEDEV that would allow for this, but Apollo didn't provide this. mknod doesn't help either without the major and minor device numbers (not that I would trust this to do the job anyway).
