To create a boot floppy in Solaris, you can use the format
utility and the fdformat
command. Here are the steps:
Insert a blank floppy disk into your floppy drive.
Open a terminal and use the format
utility to create a boot floppy. Type the following command:
format -b
Follow the prompts to select the floppy drive and create the boot floppy.
Once the boot floppy has been created, you can use it to boot your Solaris system.
Note: Keep in mind that boot floppies are no longer commonly used and are generally not necessary for modern systems. If you are setting up a new Solaris system, it is recommended to use a bootable USB drive or CD/DVD instead of a boot floppy.
