Unix Gurus:

I need some help

How do I get 3 data files into  the same raw device ??

Will something like this work or will I end up in overwritting file1
and then file2 ??

dd if=/some/unix/file1 of=/dev/raw/device
dd if=/some/unix/file2 of=/dev/raw/device
dd if=/some/unix/file3 of=/dev/raw/device

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

Carlos
