Hi again,

	I'm a new Minix user and am having my problems getting it up and
running.  Mostly small problems that I do fix, but I've run across one
that I don't know:

	Why won't my passwd file keep any new accounts?  If I reboot, the
passwd file resets to the original values.  Is there anyway around this
or something I'm forgetting to do?  BTW, I'm still on floppy's.  Does
that make any difference?  We're looking at hard drive installation
by the weekend, so if that does make a difference, then hopefully the
problem goes away...right?

Oh well...thanks for any help, it is very appreciated.
