Hi Dave,

Have you considered a USB floppy drive ? Most USB enabled motherboards 
I've seen will allow emulation of the floppy disk as an internal one. 
Googling "asr usb" gave

and

Both suggest it's not possible without a floppy ASR floppy disk. 

regards

Subject
[Networker] ASR recovery without floppy






Is it possible to do an ASR recovery on a NetWorker Client without a
floppy drive?  The system in question has a CD drive and USB ports but
no floppy drive and no prospect of attaching a floppy drive.  If it's
possible how would we go about it?  I'm looking at EMC On-line support
but I'm not finding anything relevant.

Networker 7.2.1 (Server & Client), Windows Server 2003 on the Client.
We have a good full backup including ASR save set from last Saturday.

Thanks, Dave
