Subject: B 20.1: /dev/fd0 doesn't work with dd anymore
13 Jan 1999 10:26:55 -0800 :

I tried to use dd to create boot images from the following command line:

I:\tmp\rh5alpha\IMAGES  $dd if=NONAME.IMG of=/dev/fd0
dd: /dev/fd0: No such file or directory

I tried reinstalling, that didn't help. I removed B 20.1 and installed B 19,
it worked.  So I tried installing B 20.1 after having B 19 to see if maybe
there was just something missing.  It didn't work.

I tried this both from the bash shell and 4nt.

From bash if you type mount I get:

Device           Directory           Type        Flags
\\.\tape1:       /dev/st1            native      text!=binary
\\.\tape0:       /dev/st0            native      text!=binary
\\.\b:           /dev/fd1            native      text!=binary
\\.\a:           /dev/fd0            native      text!=binary
I:               /                   native      text!=binary

Thanks for any help you can give.
