| ==========Copying Files to a Diskette
1. Format the diskette in drive floppy0:
2. # fddisk -fmt /dev/rdisk/floppy0c
3. Write a new disk label to a standard 3.5-inch diskette:
4. # disklabel -wr floppy0 rx23
5. Create a new file system on the entire diskette, the c
partition:
6. # newfs /dev/rdisk/floppy0c
Follow this procedure to mount the diskette drive and copy the files to
the diskette:
1. Mount the diskette drive on the /mnt mount point:
2. # mount /dev/disk/floppy0c /mnt
I applied these steps to mount the floppy.
It works!
I don't understand why I have to mount a block device while I
formatted a rdisk device.
Could someone explain me why, pleaz?
