Examples--Copying or Moving Information to a Diskette

The first example, below, moves a file (readme.doc) from the current directory to the diskette loaded into the first floppy drive (indicated by /floppy/floppy0). The second example copies a file (readme2.doc) from the current directory to the diskette loaded into the second floppy drive (indicated by /floppy/floppy1). The third example copies a directory (morefiles) and its contents from the /home/smith/directory to the diskette loaded into the first floppy drive.

$ mv readme.doc /floppy/floppy0
$ cp readme2.doc /floppy/floppy1
$ cp -r /home/smith/morefiles /floppy/floppy0
