In the furture check out www.filext.com HTH khizman Nov 13, 2002, 04:44 PM how do i extract the 1st 2 i need 2 write them 2 floppy extracted. thanx beardedwonder Nov 13, 2002, 06:05 PM you can use ISObuster and WinIso to open them (CDRWIN and others to burn them) but i don't know about putting them on floppy how big are the files. kyle5077 Nov 13, 2002, 08:37 PM Originally posted by khizman how do i extract the 1st 2 i need 2 write them 2 floppy extracted. thanx Roflmao! A .BIN on a floppy? God that would have to eather b one small a$$ image or u will spend more on floppys then just buying a burner :D If u would like to extract the files from it tho u can use winISO or ISObuster. HTH ElaineM Nov 14, 2002, 03:08 AM What kyle is so ineloquently trying to say is, if the size of the files are quite large, considering that only 1.44 mb will fit on a floppy, it might be rather impossible (or extremely time consuming, not to mention using many disks) to extract them. Perhaps if you gave us the particulars of your situation, we could better advise you. khizman Nov 14, 2002, 09:43 AM its a mini linux distro :D |
