Dear list,
Is there an easy way to copy a .deb on to multiple floppies?

To split:
$ split -b 1400k file.deb (or 'cat file.deb | split ... ')
$ mcopy xaa a:
(change floppy)
$ mcopy xab a:
...
To rebuild:
(copy files from floppies)

Use split to split it into multiple files, and then use cat to
reassemble it at the other end.

Have a look at split, a standard GNU textutils tool. :-)
