Keywords: 386BSD 0.1, INSTALL.NOTE Message-ID: <1992Jul30.123915.9870@sparc4.ncu.edu.tw> Date: 30 Jul 92 12:39:15 GMT Sender: news@sparc4.ncu.edu.tw Organization: Dep. of EECS, National Central University, Chungli, Taiwan, R.O.C. Lines: 26 Nntp-Posting-Host: 140.115.70.21 Dear all 386BSD experters: I had a foolish question: for those distribution files (bin01.hh etc01.hh, and src01.hh), how can you download them onto floppies? I have a 486 machine which does not have any model, network, tape devices, just only floppies, so I must download files via my work-station account, then download again to the PC in my department, I must copy them onto flooppies and bring these floppies to home, then I must try to cpio them onto my machine. now, how can I transfer these XXX01.hh onto floppies? use `voldump' ? no, this is not a DOS batch file, it is only one possible way, copy them by DOS's COPY? XCOPY? or PCShell? just use binary copy onto a MSDOS formatted floppies? Perhaps INSTALL.NOTE is not clear for such situation, can you enlight me? thanks, best regards, Anthony Li -- >>> Anthony Li <Li3, Shih4 Hao2><Li:fruit's Name><Shih:Scholar><Hao:Hero> <<< <<< Institute of CSEE, National Central Univ, Chungli, Taoyuan, Taiwan, ROC >>> <<< Bitnet: U230700@twncu865.bitnet <<< >>> Internet: U230700@ncu865.ncu.edu.tw oper2@ncuee.ncu.edu.tw >>>
