copy redboot to floppy on cgywin


Hi I have built redboot for PC target.
Here is how I did (fellowing the user guide).
1)in my build directory.
$ECOSDIR/host/configure --prefix=$TEMP/redboot-build
--with-tcl=/usr 
make
2)ecosconfig new pc redboot  
  ecosconfig inport
$(ECOS_REPOSITORY)/hal/i386/pc/current/misc/redboot_FLOPPY.ecm
 ecosconfig tree
make
3)format the floppy on DOS format /u a:
4)in Cygwin
mount -f -b //./a: /dev/fd0
dd conv=sync if=install/bin/redboot.bin of=/dev/fd0
then I got 
/dev/fd0: can not find the file or directory
What do I need to check????

But it did not seem to give a error when I did

dd conv=sync if=install/bin/redboot.bin of=a:
In this case, when I use the floppy on a PC,
After BIOS shows up, It complains
"In valid system dick, "
can not go on.

How should it be???



environement: Win98, cygwin, ecos configuration tool
1.3.net. Repository: updated on Feb28.
