bootcdflopcp - copy changes made after booting from bootcd to floppy
bootcdflopcp [
-v] [
-d device]
bootcd2disk is used to write a running bootcd built with
bootcdwrite to disk.
The bootcd can be copied to one or more Disk Partitions seen by the running
system. It is possible to let
bootcd2disk automatically find a disk,
make partitions on it, copy the cd to the disk and make the disk bootable.
bootcdflopcp will copy changes made in ram to the floppy disk.
bootcdflopcp will be available as soon as your system is running from
cd. The floppy has to have a filesystem already. (See mke2fs or mformat). If
you have to boot from floppy, because your cd-drive or bios does not support
to boot from cd a msdos filesystem is used to run syslinux.
bootcdflopcp searches for differences between RAM and CD. For each
different file, it checks if it is listed in the files ignore, remove or
change on floppy. If it is listed in change it will be saved to change.tgz on
floppy. If it is listed in remove the file will be removed from ram next boot
time. If it is listed in ignore it will be ignored. If it is not listed at all
you will be interactively asked what to do.
-v
-d device
Use device instead of /dev/fd0
to save changes.
FLOPPY:/remove
Each line in the file remove on the
floppy disk is a file name. Files listed will be deleted from ram next boot
time.
FLOPPY:/ignore
Each line in the file ignore on the
floppy disk is a file name. Files listes will be ignored by
bootcdflopcp.
FLOPPY:/change.tgz
Files in change.tgz on the floppy disk
will be copied to ram next boot time.
