Hi there,

I've downloaded a driver and its in the format "xxxx.img"
How do I extract this to a floppy disk? (RH 7.3)


Thanks in advance,

you could use the "dd" command to write it to the floppy drive. I'm a little rusty, but I think it's:

dd if=xxx.img of=/dev/fd0

Also, you could mount the image and extract the files on it, if that's what you're trying to do.
