Operating Systems SCO How to open a floppy in SCO UNIX? Post 302902778 by hicksd8 on Thursday 22nd of May 2014 08:01:21 AM

It's been many years since I used SCO in anger.

However, from what I remember it would be like:

Code:
mount /dev/fd0135ds18 /mnt

to mount the floppy under /mnt

Therefore, after mounting, the contents of the floppy should appear in /mnt

NAME
gitmount - GNU Interactive Tools - auto-mount script SYNTAX
gitmount device DESCRIPTION
gitmount is a script which allows you to mount any block device without specifying the file system type. You may now insert the floppy in the drive and type ' gitmount fd0' and the first floppy will be mounted in the directory /mnt/fd0. On Linux just press F11 or F12. You don't need to know the file system type anymore. The directories /mnt/fd0 and /mnt/fd1 are created if they don't exist. BUGS
