NAME

       bootcdflopcp - copy changes made after booting from bootcd to floppy

SYNOPSIS

       bootcdflopcp [-v] [-d <device>]

DESCRIPTION

       bootcdflopcp  will  copy  changes  made  in  ram to the floppy disk.  bootcdflopcp will be
       available as soon as your system is running from cd.  The floppy has to have a  filesystem
       already.  (See mke2fs or mformat).  If you have to boot from floppy, because your cd-drive
       or bios does not support to boot from cd a msdos filesystem is used to run syslinux.  When
       bootcdflopcp is called it searches for differences between RAM and CD.  For each different
       file, it checks if it is listed in the files ignore, remove or change on floppy. If it  is
       listed  in  change it will be saved to change.tgz on floppy. If it is listed in remove the
       file will be removed from ram next boot time. If  it  is  listed  in  ignore  it  will  be
       ignored. If it is not listed at all you will be interactively asked what to do.

OPTIONS

       -v  The option "-v" (verbose) adds messages on running.

       -d <device>
           Use another device instead of "/dev/fd0" to save changes.
