.SH NAME
\f4ldsysdump\f1 \- load system dump from floppy diskettes
.SH SYNOPSIS
\f4/usr/sbin/ldsysdump\f1 \f2destination_file\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \f4ldsysdump\fP command loads the memory image files from
the floppy diskettes used to take a system dump 
and recombines them into a single
file on the hard disk suitable for use by the \f4crash\fP command.
The \f2destination_file\f1 is the name of the hard disk
file into which the data from the diskettes will be loaded.
.PP
When invoked,
\f4ldsysdump\fP
begins an interactive procedure that prompts the user
to insert the diskettes to be loaded.
The user has the option of quitting the session at any time.
This allows only the portion of the system image needed to be dumped.
.SH EXAMPLES
This example loads the three floppies produced via the \f4sysdump\f1 command
on a machine equipped with 2 MB of memory.

\f4ulimit\fP(2) in the \f2Programmer's Reference Manual\f1.
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
If a floppy diskette is inserted out of sequence
a message is printed.  The user is allowed to insert
a new one and continue the session.
.SH NOTES
Since the 3B2 computer can be equipped with up to 4 MB of memory,
the \f2destination_file\f1 can become quite large.
The file size limit must be set large enough 
to hold a file of this size.
