Setting up a ZIP drive image, and adding file to it

[arjepsen]

Hey.
I'm trying to update the firmware on my Fostex VF16.
The way to do it was to attach a SCSI ZIP drive, with the firmware file on the disk.

I think I figured out how to make a ZIP image file, using the web interface to RASCSI, but I can't quite figure out how to mount this image, in order to transfer the firmware file to it.

Any help?

Regards
Anders

Eh.. you'll probably have to ssh in so you can mount the image on the pi in order to create an fs and copy files in.

Correct, this is how you do it. Mount the image file at a Linux mount point and transfer the file through the file system. You may have to partition and format the image file with a file system that your host can read, e.g. FAT32.
