hello I just buy a laptop, and the disk floppy is on an usb interface
I installed a redhat 7.3, it configure the floppy as device /dev/sda and it works well : I can mount, read, write on floppy disk I can also create a filesystem with the mke2fs command but I now want to make a low-level format, and try to use the fdformat (I need to have a floppy in 1,7 Mo for tomsrtbt linux mini-distribution) but it fails : > fdormat /dev/sda /dev/sda: not a floppy device I try on floppy device : >fdformat /dev/fd0 /dev/fd0: No such device or adress I then tried with a symbolic link from /dev/sda to /dev/fd0, but : >fdformat /dev/fd0 /dev/fd0: not a floppy device do you know how to do ? -- Eric Gerbier ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Stuff, things, and much much more. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users
