NAME

       bootcdflopcp - copy changes made after booting from bootcd to floppy

SYNOPSIS

       bootcdflopcp [-v] [-d device]

DESCRIPTION

       bootcd2disk is used to write a running bootcd built with bootcdwrite to disk.

       The  bootcd  can  be copied to one or more Disk Partitions seen by the running system.  It is possible to
       let bootcd2disk automatically find a disk, make partitions on it, copy the cd to the disk  and  make  the
       disk bootable.

       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.  bootcdflopcp 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
          be verbose

       -d device
          Use device instead of /dev/fd0 to save changes.

FILES

       FLOPPY:/remove
          Each line in the file remove on the floppy disk is a file name.  Files listed will be deleted from ram
          next boot time.

       FLOPPY:/ignore
          Each line in the file ignore on the floppy disk is a file name.   Files  listes  will  be  ignored  by
          bootcdflopcp.

       FLOPPY:/change.tgz
          Files in change.tgz on the floppy disk will be copied to ram next boot time.
