In Linux, you'd write an image file to a floppy using the following syntax:
dd if=floppyimage of=/dev/fd0
With the GNU port of Linux under Windows, the first thing I tried was:
dd if=floppyimage of=a:
That didn't work.
So, how do you refer to the floppy drive in Windows? It took me a bit to figure it out, and I actually ended up making use of the syntax that a VMware guest OS will use to access a shared folder from its host OS. In other words, you do this:
dd if=floppyimage of=\\.\a:
Using GNU port of DD in Windows.
