If somebody needs to use a blank floppy in DEC OSF/1 .
He can use the below instructions.
I used the word "Using" it can be replaced by mounting.

#fddisk -f -fmt /dev/rfd0a
#disklabel -rw /dev/rfd0a RX23
   this command may give some error, but you can neglect it.
#newfs /dev/rfd0a
#mkdir /floppy
#mount /dev/fd0a /floppy
#df -k

I got this help from many fellows , for this I am grateful to all of
you who helped me. Specially

Mr. TOM BLINN
Mr. JAGADEESH. V
and many more.
