NAME
bootcdflopcp - copy changes made after booting from bootcd to floppy
SYNOPSIS
bootcdflopcp [-v] [-d <device>]
DESCRIPTION
bootcdflopcp will copy changes made in ram to the floppy disk.
bootcdflopcp will be available as soon as your system is running from
cd. The floppy has to have a filesystem already. (See mke2fs or
mformat). If you have to boot from floppy, because your cd-drive or
bios does not support to boot from cd a msdos filesystem is used to run
syslinux. When bootcdflopcp is called it searches for differences
between RAM and CD. For each different file, it checks if it is listed
in the files ignore, remove or change on floppy. If it is listed in
change it will be saved to change.tgz on floppy. If it is listed in
remove the file will be removed from ram next boot time. If it is
listed in ignore it will be ignored. If it is not listed at all you
will be interactively asked what to do.
OPTIONS
-v The option "-v" (verbose) adds messages on running.
-d <device>
Use another device instead of "/dev/fd0" to save changes.
