ARCHIVE CONTENTS

  This archive mmdisk-1.3.zip contains these files:

    README      -- This file.
    MD5SUM      -- MD5SUM value for the floppy image.
    floppy.bin  -- 1.44MB floppy boot disk image.

WRITE IMAGE IN LINUX

  To write the image to a 1.44MB disk in the first floppy drive, type:

    $ dd if=floppy.bin of=/dev/fd0

  The result is a stand-alone boot disk containing the well-known stress
  testing programs mprime and memtest86.

  To verify that the floppy has been written correctly, type:

    $ md5sum /dev/fd0 ; md5sum floppy.bin

  If both MD5s are the same then it is a perfect copy.

WRITE IMAGE IN WINDOWS

  Use the software on this page to write the image:
