But will cpio split the file it is to large to fit on a floppy? What about the files I have on the disc right now. I was using dos formated floppies and then ran tar to do the copy. Is it possible that I can read them using some of the suggested way?
What exact commands did you use to get it onto the floppy?
Unless you compressed the file first, I'd say its unlikely that its all there. SCO tar has no built in compression and you obviously can't fit a 6mb file on a 1.44Mb diskette.
You can try 'tar tvf /dev/floppy' on the Centos box to see what's on the floppy.
