I tested the bootdisk. It prompted "grub>" not booting the system automatically. I pressed TAB to view the commands there and tried several of them such "boot", etc. But I could not make the PC booted. Therefore I tried to mount and read the bootdisk to see whether having a detail instruction there.Problme now solved. I can mount another floppy created on another Linux box with '/mnt/floppy' There is nothing wrong on the floppy nor its drive, only impossible to read bootdisk.
I tried following command without success
# mount /mnt/floppy # mount -t ext3 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy # mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
Can you advise how to read a bootdisk. Thanks
Haven't a clue! I'm sure that's why it won't mount, since there is no file system on the floppy. I'm not sure what you want to do with it, but you could use dd to copy it.
