Hi, There,
I have a naive question: how to access floppy disc in neutrino? basically
what’s the command to copy files to a floppy disc in neutrino? I know that
in QNX 4, we can use “cp filename /dos/a”.
Thanks a lot,
Jeff
Try “mount /dev/fd0 /fd” or “mount -t dos /dev/fd0 /fd”
(depending on whether it is formatted as a QNX4 filesystem
or a DOS one, and assuming /fd is a reasonable mountpoint
for you). Then access /fd as you would have done /dos/a.

I did as you said “mount -t dos /dev/fd0 /fd”, and then I used the copy
command " cp /fd destinationfile", and it didn’t work. Instead the error
message is :" cp: Can’t get file status (/fd). No such device or address."
And I opened file manager, the fd is a broken icon in the root directory.
Thanks.

Try cp /fd/filename destinationfile.

The same problem.
I checked the “fd” in the file manager, and it is a broken icon, with Owner
= -1, and Group = -1.
Thanks.
