Hi. I just bought a USB floppy drive to go in my laptop. It mounts the disks I put into it with no trouble and reads very fast. The problem is that the drive is using /dev/sda. Neither fdformat or floppy like that. What can I do to format a floppy disk in this drive?
Thanks.
Try "mkdosfs /dev/sda". If that doesn't work you can do what I do with a camera memory I use for data transfer.
cat /dev/sda > flop mkdosfs flop cat flop >/dev/sda
