Create Rescue-Floppy: vitual-floppy support
Nowadays, most of laptops & netbooks don't have floppies. On theese systems the option "Create Rescue-Floppy " and "Restore original settings " is useless. This option should create a virtual-floppy drive, if no floppy device is detected on the system.
** Create Rescue Floppy
** INFO: "Your system doesn't have any floppy device. The rescue data will be save on to your hard-drive."
** Accept vs Skip
** Ask directory to save data (if not specify, default)...
dd if=/dev/zero of=floppy.img bs=1k count=1440
losetup /dev/loop0 floppy.img
sudo mkfs -t vfat /dev/loop0
sudo mkdir /media/
sudo mount -t vfat /dev/loop0 /media/
** Then SUM saves data, and...
sudo umount -t vfat /media/
sudo losetup -d /dev/loop0
** INFO: "Your virtual Rescue-Floppy image has been save in ..."
