[comp.os.minix] Minix-PC Demo

james@tasman.cc.utas.edu.au (Jim Patterson) (02/14/91)

I recently got the 1.5 Demo disk by FTP from ftp.cs.vu.nl in /minix.

This file is a disk image. My question is, how can I transfer this onto a
standard PC floppy?

Does anyone know if there is a utility available somewhere to copy a file onto
a DOS floppy, under DOS. Obviously it needs to copy from track 0, sector 0, i.e.
including the boot block.

It might also be a good idea if Dr. Tanenbaum was to place this info in the
Read_Me file with the demonstration.

If anyone can help, I would be most appreciative.
