 Try to mount it and see if the driver complains? 
 
 mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
 mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
 
 I've always used the vfat driver and never noticed any
 problems.

Solved.
I simply boot from the floppy and typing:
cat /etc/mtab reveal the file system type, it is umsdos.

I created oversize floppy 1.68Mb with freesco firewall, but it will not
copy into a ram drive.
