Write wakepup to USB floppy drive

[lotech]

My notebook has no build in floppy drive, how do I write the wakepup floppy on USB floppy drive for use with other PC ?

1. Locate the wakepup2.img file in /lib

2. Connect your USB floppy drive, run Pmount and identify its device name. It may be sdb. Make absolutely sure you are clear on this, so you don't accidentally erase your hard drive on the next step.

3. Run this command:

Code: Select all

dd if=/lib/wakepup2.img of=/dev/sdb

If necessary, replace sdb with the correct device name.

Thanks that fixed my problem, yes I should be careful not to overwrite my USB, just in time to pull it out before writeback
