Creating an Image
Floppy Images
UNIX and UNIX-like OS
To create an image file, make use of “dd”. This is one of the original UNIX utilities
and is included in every UNIX-like OS (UNIX, Sun Solaris, and Linux).
To create a floppy image file, copy the contents of a floppy to a file. You can use
the following command:
dd [ if=/dev/fd0 ] [ of=/tmp/floppy.image ]
dd reads the entire disc from the device /dev/fd0, and saves the output in the
specified output file /tmp/floppy.image. Adjust both parameters exactly to your
needs (input device etc.)
MS Windows
You can use the tool “Raw Write for Windows”. It is included on the CD ROM
shipped with IP-KVM switch.
Figure 6-12. RawWrite for Windows selection dialog
From the menu, select the tab “Read”. Enter (or choose) the name of the file in
which you would like to save the floppy content. Click on the button “Copy” to
initiate the image creation process.
