Issue:
Creating a Unix driver disk.
Solution:
There are two methods of creating a Unix driver diskette.
From a Unix host:
- Copy the driver file to a directory
- At the prompt run the dd command in the following format:
- dd if=[filename] of=[floppy device] bs=18k
- example: # dd if=/tmp/driver.dd of=/dev/fd0 bs=18k
From a Windows host:
- Download the Copydisk utility from the Perle website or copy the utility from the Perle CDROM to a temporary folder.
- Copy the driver file to the same directory
- At a command prompt run the copydisk utility in the following format:
- copydisk [drive] [filename]
- example: c:\> copydisk a: driver.dd
