Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2003 13:24:00 -0600 Topicbox-Message-UUID: 90f0b66c-eacb-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025 I have a CF device, which looks like IDE. I want to put a plan9 partition on it and then have an nvram section on the Plan 9 partition. I have to write the CF from linux. Is there some simple way to do the equivalent of disk/prep on a file and create a 16 MB image which I can dd onto the CF? ron
