- How does one use mwrite correctly:
-
- I have a file "astro.zoo" in my root directory under 386bsd, and
- I want to write this to a floppy (B:) in msdos format. I've tried
- all sorts of variations on a theme, the theme being "mwrite unixfiles
- msdosdirectory" as per the usage().
-
- I've tried - amongst others:
-
- mwrite astro.zoo b:
- mwrite astro.zoo b:\
- mwrite astro.zoo B:\
-
- etc.
-
- Everything responds with "open(): no such file or directory. astro.zoo
- is definitely there.
