Mount Floppy to VM Host

[alex.dersch]

Hello,

i'm looking for a way to mount a floppy drive to a VM Ware Host. I'm trying to deploy a Cisco Call Manager which needs a answer file located on a Floppy Disk to finalize the installation.

Any ideas?

thanks in advanced

take a look at this for an example

Hi Orf,

thanks for your advise.

I think we've looked at this. It believe it wasn't was we were looking for. We had the intention to create Answer Files for Call Manager and Unity unattended installations and mount them to the newly deployed Call Manager VM's.

But we managed it, so the entire process is running like a charm. Deploying CUCM Image, creation of the answer file, copying the flp image to a storage, mount the image as a floppy drive to the VM and boot the VM.

Best regards

Alex
