cutmedia -- floppy diskette and tape creation for software publishers

Synopsis

cutmedia [-d]

Description

The cutmedia script provides the mechanism by which software publishers can create floppy diskettes and tapes. Invoked without arguments, it interactively allows the publisher to select media type, transfer one or more packages to the selected media, and transfer one or more sets to the selected media.

You may exit the cutmedia script at any point. Additional packages and sets can be incorporated, as long as they are in a standard location, and have cutmedia recognize and prompt for these packages without having to modify the cutmedia script.

cutmedia supports the following option:


-d
Allows the publisher to specify the type of media to be created. The argument to -d matches an entry in the /etc/device.tab file on the host machine. The cutmedia script will accept the name of one or more sets and/or packages to be created. If the -d option is not specified, the script will prompt for media type.
