Rawrite question

[Thomas Ward]

Hi, the Red Hat rawrite programs is different from rawrite programs.

Here is an example of a rawrite command
We will say that rawrite is installed on your cd drom on drive d: in the 
dosutils folder, and the file you are writing the image from is on c:.

d:\dosutils\rawrite -f c:\dtalk.bin -d a:

Naturally, substatute the paths where the rawrite program and the file you 
are writing to floppy are.
