Here are some shell scripts for mounting and unmounting DOS & CDROM stuff. My DOS partition is /dev/hda1 and the cdrom drive is /dev/hdb. If yours is different, change the scripts to match your equipment. I keep these in the /root directory and use "su -" to access them. I'm working on automounting these devices so that I can dispose of these scripts.
------------ c.on ------------------------------- ## Mount C: (/dev/hda1) to /C directory (mkdir /C) mount -t msdos -o user /dev/hda1 /C echo C drive now connected to /C ------------ c.off ------------------------------ ## Unmount C: from /C directory umount /dev/hda1 echo C drive now disconnected from /C ------------ cdrom.on --------------------------- ## Mount CDROM drive to /cdrom (already in root directory) mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/hdb /cdrom echo CDRom connected to /cdrom ------------ cdrom.off -------------------------- ## Unmount CDROM drive from /cdrom umount /dev/hdb echo CDrom drive now disconnected from /cdrom ------------ floppy.on -------------------------- ## Mount 3 1/2" DOS floppy in drive A: to /floppy mount -t msdos /dev/fd0H1440 /floppy echo Floppy drive now connected to /floppy ------------ floppy.off ------------------------- ## Unmount 3 1/2" floppy from /floppy umount /dev/fd0H1440 echo Floppy drive now disconnected from /floppy -- -= Sent by Debian 1.2 Linux =- Thomas Kocourek KD4CIK [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
