- Hello there.
-
- I would like to use SCO Xenix for FTP:ing software. The machine, where it
- runs, has one HD 3"5 floppy drive. Can I just do so with Xenix, that I
- mount /dev/fd0 /myowndir and then access the floppy from /myowndir ? Does
- the Xenix recognize the 1.44 MB floppies automatically with no problems?
- Or do the Xenix floppies have some special format? If so, how can I write
- to dos-formatted floppies?
-
- Please email to me.
