Subject: Setting up lp for PC
Date: Sat, 6 Jan 1996 23:00:54 -0500

I'm trying to set up a PostScript printer on my standalone PC's lpt1.
attempting to print using 'lp' gives me the "could not properly set up
LPSPOOL" error because lp is attempting to mount a system named
"bootes". 
   I know that at least one thing that I need to do is modify 
/sys/src/cmd/lp/lp.rc, particularly the references to "bootes".  I
haven't been able to shake my "bootes" (apologies in advance to all)!
   Can anyone give me some pointers? Are there other files that will
need modifying also that I may have missed?
