Creating an emergency boot floppy disk set

Adding files to the root floppy disk

If you respond y to the prompt for a shell escape during root floppy disk creation, you see:

   You can copy files into /mnt to customize your root filesystem floppy.
   After you finish, type "exit 0" to continue.
   You have   n free blocks (512 bytes each) available on the floppy.
The command prompt is <bootroot>.

If you have enough free space available, you can copy additional files to the root floppy disk. For example, to copy the file /usr/pest to the disk, you would enter:

cp /usr/pest /mnt/usr

When your additions are complete, enter exit 0 at the bootroot> prompt.
