I'm not too much experienced in linux - cmp - a new command I've found,
read the man page, but I don't understand what you exactly mean.

I tried:
( while mount -o ro -t vfat /dev/fd0 /fl; do cat /fl/x*;
echo -n 'Insert next' >&2; umount /fl; read; done ) | cat - >big_file
which should produce the original file. But after inserting second floppy
and pressing a key I got a message:
Segmentation fault

The newly created big_file is same as the part on the first floppy (tested
with md5sum).

Thanks for any help
