Manual diskette mounting instructions

If the volume manager is not running, you can manually mount the PC diskette. You
must have root privileges to use the

mount

command. Type the following

command:

mount -F pcfs device-special directory-name

For example:

mount -F pcfs /dev/diskette /floppy

Or, if the device name

/dev/diskette - /pcfs pcfs -no-

is in your

/etc/vfstab

directory,

type the following command to mount the diskette:

mount /pcfs

You can then copy the files to your hard disk or extract the file

unix.tar

, as described

in

Extracting files from unix.tar

.

To eject the diskette, type:

eject

N O T E

Do not execute the

eject

command from within the mount point (the directory to

which you mounted the diskette).
