Title: Help creating boot floppy for upgrade
Post by: Javier on September 23, 2003, 01:00:37 AM

I downloaded release 6 Beta 3, i'm trying to upgrade but i can't make a boot floppy out of the cd image. Do i need a boot.img from the 6 beta 3 cd?
Thanks

I believe you do.  I created a boot floppy last night from the 6b3 CD.  Have a formatted floppy and go the dosutils directory on the Cd and type rawrite.  It will prompt you through the rest.  Or, you can put the commands all on one line.  I don't remember the format as I don't us that everyday.  

There is also a way to do it at Linux server itself and the cd, but I don't use that command everyday as well.
