     FDSWAP(ADM)	      XENIX System V		   FDSWAP(ADM)

     Name
	  fdswap - Swaps default boot floppy drive.

     Syntax
	  fdswap [on|off]

     Description
	  fdswap tells the CMOS to swap the default floppy drive used
	  to read boot information at boot time. For example, if your
	  computer defaults to read boot information on drive A,
	  fdswap on changes the default drive to drive B.

	  fdswap with no arguments reports the current fdswap state,
	  on or off. fdswap off switches the drive setting back to the
	  default configuration. Changing the drives takes effect on
	  the next boot of the system.

	  Support for this functionality is only available on a small
	  number of machines.  The ROMs must recognize and interpret
	  the CMOS flag that specifies that the floppy drives are
	  swapped.
