NAME

flcopy − copier for diskettes

SYNOPSIS

/etc/flcopy [−f filename] [ −h ] [−r] [ −tn ]

DESCRIPTION

 
Flcopy copies a diskette (opened as /dev/rfd0) to a file created in the current directory, named “floppy”, then prints the message “Change floppy, hit return when done”. Flcopy then copies the local file back out to the diskette. 

The −f option allows you to specify a file other than /dev/rfd0.

The −h option causes flcopy to open a file named “floppy” in the current directory and copy it to /dev/rfd0.

The −r option tells flcopy to exit after copying the diskette into the file named “floppy” in the current directory. 

The −t option causes only the first n tracks to participate in a copy. 

DIAGNOSTICS

Prints “Not a floppy” if the device is not a diskette drive.  Note that the raw device must be specified. 

FILES

/dev/rfd0
floppy (in current directory)
