Removing and Inserting a File-System Flexible Disk

Caution

If you wish to use the disk as a moun ted ￿le system, y ou must

 

mount it every time you insert it into the drive, and you must

 

unmount the disk before y ou eject it from the driv e.

 

 

You will need to do the following: Before you remove a disk:

1. Temporarily unmoun t the ￿le system for the disk b y executing the

4following. For example, if the disk is designated b y the block device ￿le

/dev/floppy/c201d0s0 :

umount /dev/floppy/c201d0s0

2. Remove the disk. After you insert a disk:

1.Mount the disk ￿le system so that HP-UX will recognize it. If, for example, you are mounting the disk in a driv e designated by the device ￿le /dev/floppy/c201d0s0 under a pre-existing directory /flex , execute the following:

mount /dev/floppy/c201d0s0 /flex

(Note that the directory /flex, in the example, m ust be given an absolute path name).

In this example, the mount command announces to the system that a removable ￿le system is to be attac hed at the directory /flex .

2. Now you can access the ￿exible disk as y ou would any other disk.
