Using Your 3.5-Inch Floppy Disk Drive
Additional Floppy Drive Information
Additional Floppy Drive Information
This section provides information about configuration of the floppy disk
driver and information about useful HP-UX commands for copying and
listing floppy disk files.
Configuring the Floppy Driver
If you reload software or rebuild the Instant Ignition system on your
computer, you may need to reconfigure the HP-UX kernel to add the
floppy disk driver. Use the
SAM
utility to add the
sioflop
disk driver
and build a new HP-UX kernel.
For more information about how to reconfigure the kernel using
SAM
,
see the following manuals:
Managing Systems and Workgroups
Using HP-UX
For More Information
For more information on using
tar
and a complete list of the command
arguments, refer to the
tar
man page by typing the following command
in a terminal window at the prompt and pressing
Enter
:
man tar
You can mount the floppy drive as a file system using the SAM utility. Be
sure to unmount the drive before removing it as a file system. For more
information about how to mount and unmount the floppy drive, see the
manual
Using HP-UX
.
For more information on copying data to or from your system to other
media, including your floppy diskette, refer to the
cpio
man page by
typing the following command in a terminal window at the prompt and
pressing
Enter
:
man cpio
