One small Question:

I need to make a boot disk that will Mount my HDD and copy small files
into different directory.

I I would have done it in dos it would have look like this

Format a:/s
copy my files into root
create a batch file
copy con autoexec.bat
@echo off
copy toto.bmp c:\application X\image
copy tata.bmp c:\application X\backup
copy *.gif c:\application X\image
@echo on ***************************
@echo on * REMOVE DISK AND REBOOT *
@echo on****************************
@echo off

it would do it

under linux red hat

I can make the boot disk with mkbootdisk #.##.##

but I can not make the script.that would mount the hdd and copy the
files.

before you all ask there is no access to the console currently system
boot directly into application which
does not allow access to command.

that is why i need to boot with a disk then copy the file in the
proper directory then reboot normaly into the application.

Thank you in advance.

Alain
