Subject: the fdvol utility Content-Type: text/plain; charset=x-UNICODE-2-0-UTF-7 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear Sirs, Instead of using RAWRITE to copy disk1 - the 1.44MB diskette image - directly onto a floppy, one may opt to use FDVOL.EXE a utility available from ftp://ftp.minix.org/pub/minix/dosutil/fdvol.exe The utility is being used to create a similar diskette for the installation of MINIX. Yours Sincerely, A.S. -- **************************************************************** *Apostolos Syropoulos * *snail mail: 366, 28th October Str., GR-671 00 Xanthi, HELLAS * *email : apostolo@obe... * *phone num.: +-30-(0)541-28704 * *home page : http://obelix.ee.duth.gr/+AH4-apostolo * ****************************************************************
