When running rawrite from either an NT4 Command Prompt (Dos Window) or Windows 2000 Command Prompt, rawrite does not work. It is incapable of writing an image to a floppy. Is there a work around for this problem? thanks, stuart stuart
By the way, under the "Version" I inadvertantly checked "4.2" instead of "6.2". But I think this bug goes back to at least 6.0, as I tried a rawrite.exe from that CD as well.
AFAIK, this is a known problem of this DOS program in NT. I have seen a RawriteNT.exe, which does work, but is ridiculously slow. From Readme.txt: --snip-- RaWriteNT - RaWrite for Windows NT I wanted to make a Linux bootdisk under Windows NT and realized that RaWrite didn't work on NT.. Hence I wrote this program. Released under the GPL. I havn't had any problems with it but use at your own risk. Hope this helps out. Note: although this does the same thing as RaWrite, it's usage isn't exactly the same. Usage: rawritent <file> <drive:> Example: C:\Slackware\bootdsks.144> rawritent bare.i a: Dan cppace --snip-- I can't remember the source of it, though; a link from usenet perhaps. HTH
