Subject: Floppy disk (filesystem size)
Hi,
I'need to write 1440 (1K blocks) to a floppy disk.
This is the size of a driver for the hardware, that I
need to be able to install FC3 (from an (FC3-)ISO
image) .
How do I create a floppy that can hold 1440 (1K
blocks)? Or what alternative do I have?
If you have the image file in the file "diskimage.img", do
dd if=diskimage.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1k count 1440
