Hi,

I'm having difficulty getting something like "dd if=/dev/fd0"
to work. I get a "No File or directory" error. On the other
hand, if the floppy contains a DOS filesystem, something lile
"cat /dev/fd0/README" works. Also, ls works on a:, \\a, and so
on.

I'm trying b17.1 on Windows NT 4.0.

Thanks in advance,

Vijayan
