>Description:
When I use MKFLOPPY.BAT on the CD, it make the 2nd floppy, but not the
first, it jump it.
When I edit the MKFLOPPY.BAT, I see at the line 11 :
cdboot\rawrite -f -f \cdboot\boot1.fs -d A
instead of
cdboot\rawrite -n -f \cdboot\boot1.fs -d A

With the -f -f, rawrite give an error :
rawrite: '\cdboot\boot1.fs' - unknown option.
Use 'rawrite -h' for instructions.
and skip the creation of the floppy #1


Yours,

Hugo Simancas


>How-To-Repeat:
Executing the MKFLOPPY.BAT on the CD on the NetBSD live i386 CD.
>Fix:
Change the line 11 with :
cdboot\rawrite -n -f \cdboot\boot1.fs -d A
