Hello,
The following are a series of instructions to format, disklabel, create a
file system on, access, and close access to an inserted 3.5" floppy disk in
the Digital UNIX loaded alpha servers.
fddisk -fmt -f /dev/fd0c.........................formats the inserted 3.5"
floppy disk
disklabel -rw /dev/rfd0c rx23....................disklabels the floppy disk
newfs /dev/rfd0c.................................creates new file system on
the floppy disk
mount /dev/fd0c /mnt.............................mounts floppy disk so
contents are available via mnt directory (mnt directory must be created
first at root level)
umount /mnt......................................unmounts floppy disk from
said directory
