making a setup disk
 

I'm trying to make a setup floppy since I can't boot from my cdrom, but whenever I try to copy boot.img from the images folder of my Red Hat 7.2 disk, it says there is not enough space on my disk (there actually is, I don't know what's wrong). I have already completely reformatted the floppy, so it's not that.

any suggestions?

you need to use rawrite to put the image on the disk using windows, in linux we use dd

the .img file is a filesystem image, you cannot create a boot disk by copying it to a floppy.

try dd fi=/path/boot.img fo=/dev/fd0

dd if=/path/boot.img of=/dev/fd0

thanks, I figured it out. For some reason my book says to place the image directly on the disk.
