Reading and Writing MS-DOS/Windows floppies under QNX RTP

Hi;
I have been trying to figure out how to properly read and hopefully write
DOS/Windows compatible floppies under QNX RTP, can anyone tell me how this
is done??

Hi Chris,

Check out the QNX Knowledge Base:

and do a search for “Dos floppy”

Take care.

Erick.

Is there a way to let users mount floppies without being root? (I’m
thinking somethink like the “auto” option in /etc/fstab in Linux. A user
just types mount /floppy and it mounts automatically, with the right
ownership and priviledges.)
