Perfect. I have a file named 'image'
Now if I could only figure out how to format to 1722 I'd be set. I have tried fdformat /dev/fd0D720, /dev/fd0H720, /dev/fd0h720 but no luck yet. In man fdformat it says"
The generic floppy devices, /dev/fd0 and /dev/fd1, will fail to work
with fdformat when a non-standard format is being used, or if the for- mat has not been autodetected earlier. In this case, use setfdprm(8)
to load the disk parameters.
OK so man setfdparm
"Setfdprm can also be used by the superuser to redefine the default formats.
Options
-p device name
Permanently loads a new parameter set for the specified auto-
configuring floppy device for the configuration with name in
`/etc/fdprm'. Alternatively, the parameters can be given
directly from the command line.
It doesn't tell you how or what commands you can use though.
I don't have an /etc/fdparm. How do I give the parameters on the cli?
Thanks
