Hi

I'm trying to restore an old version of OpenServer 5.0.0 and would like to make copies of the original SCO boot/installation floppies before I do anything. How can I do this? They're 1.44MB 135dshd

Thanks
 
1) copy the source floppy to disk
dd if=/dev/rfd0135ds18 of=/tmp/floppy bs=18k
2) copy disk image to new floppy
dd if=/tmp/floppy of=/dev/rfd0135ds18 bs=18k

Hope This Helps, PH.
