Is there any command available for dealing with a floppy disk?    If you prefer using a command-line approach to deal with a floppy disk operation, you can use "mtools" commands. "mtools" is a public domain collection of tools to allow Unix systems to manipulate MS-DOS files: read, write, and move around files on a floppy disk. Available "mtools" commands that you can type directly at system prompt include; mtools command It does mattrib Change MS-DOS file attribute flags. mbadblocks Scan a floppy and mark its bad blocks as bad. mcd Change the mtools working directory on the floppy disk. mcopy Copy MS-DOS files to and from Unix. mdel delete an MS-DOS file in a floppy disk. mdeltree Delete a directory and all the files and subdirectories it contains from a floppy disk. mdir Display an MS-DOS directory in the floppy disk. mdu List the space occupied by a directory, its subdirectories and its files in a floppy disk. It is similar to the du command on Unix. mformat Format a floppy disk. minfo Print the parameters of a DOS filesystem on screen, such as number of sectors, heads and cylinders. mkmanifest create a shell script that aids in the restoration of Unix filenames that got clobbered by the MS-DOS filename restrictions. MS-DOS filenames are restricted to 8 character names, 3 character extensions, upper case only, no device names, and no illegal characters. mlabel Add a volume label to a floppy disk. mmd Make an MS-DOS subdirectory in a floppy disk. mrd Remove an MS-DOS subdirectory in a floppy disk. mread list recursively mmove Move an existing MS-DOS file or subdirectory in a floppy disk. mren Rename an existing MS-DOS file or subdirectory in a floppy disk. mtoolstest Test the mtools configuration files. mtype Display contents of an MS-DOS file on the screen.
