Hi, I know that this will not work, I tried it before, but i used Jaws at least 2 3 times, since then I switched to debian and no longer needed to copy the key disk. Anyway, use the DOS application called infodisk, this will work. Aldo.

However the "bad" secotors on th disk are defeating dd. I have 2 solutions. 1. find an dos/windows based program which will do this or 2. turn off the error reporting in linux for floppy disks. Anyone know how to turn off error checking in linux for floppies tried /etc/fdprm but that wasn't a lot of help. > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Blinux-list@redhat.com > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
