Linux(Fedora,Red Hat,SuSE) Driver Support

rawrite.exe. It can be found on the Fedora Linux CD (under /dosutils). Just run it under

a command window and follow its prompt.

On a Linux system, you can use the “dd” command to make the boot diskette. Insert a

floppy disk into the floppy drive and type the command (example):

# dd if=rr2644-fedora-8.img of=/dev/fd0

Note:If the floppy diskette is inserted into an external USB floppy controller and the

device name in the linux system is sda, then:

# dd if=rr2644-fedora-8.img of=/dev/sda

In the following document, we assume the driver diskette is inserted into the on-

board’s floppy controller and the device name is fd0.

If the driver diskette is inserted into the external USB floppy controller, then you

should replace the fd0 with the device name of the USB floppy controller.

“Insert your driver disk and press OK to continue”, insert the driver diskette in
