MAking a batch file ???

[photofinishron]

I got something to work in terminal! WOOHOO!

Now can I make a batch file which will do the operation much the same as old DOS style batch files?

note - [output omitted] inserted in place of actual output for ease of typing.

Here's what I did:

root@sysresccd /root % mkdir /mnt/sdb
root@sysresccd /root % mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb
root@sysresccd /root % ls -l
[ls output omitted]
root@sysresccd /mnt/sdb % cd ibmbackup
root@sysresccd /mnt/sdb/ibmbackup % cd ibmpart
root@sysresccd /mnt/sdb/ibmbackup/ibmpart % dd if=/dev/sda of=backup-sda.mbr count=1 bs=512
[output omitted]
root@sysresccd /mnt/sdb/ibmbackup/ibmpart % ls -l
[output omitted]

Thanks
