Are there /dev/fd* device files? Do they work? On my test machine a) the floppy module wasn't loaded at all -> so no floppy support b) after manually loading it, udev created only fd0u*, not fd0h* I do have floppy devices: fornax:~ # ll /dev/fd* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd -> /proc/self/fd brw-rw----+ 1 col disk 2, 0 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1474560 Aug 18 11:40 /dev/fd0h1440 b--------- 1 root root 2, 84 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1040 b--------- 1 root root 2, 88 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1120 brw------- 1 col root 2, 28 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1440 b--------- 1 root root 2, 124 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1600 b--------- 1 root root 2, 44 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1680 b--------- 1 root root 2, 60 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1722 b--------- 1 root root 2, 76 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1743 b--------- 1 root root 2, 96 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1760 b--------- 1 root root 2, 116 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1840 b--------- 1 root root 2, 100 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u1920 b--------- 1 root root 2, 12 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u360 brw------- 1 col root 2, 16 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u720 b--------- 1 root root 2, 120 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u800 b--------- 1 root root 2, 52 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u820 b--------- 1 root root 2, 68 Aug 18 08:47 /dev/fd0u830 mdir a: and mkdosfs /dev/fd0 work fine We have machines here that don't have /dev/fd* diveses, but on my machine they are available - see listing above. From linux/Documentation/devices.txt: 40 = /dev/fd?h1440 5.25" 1440K in a 1200K drive(1) 28 = /dev/fd?u1440 3.5" 1440K High Density(1) You sure you want to write to /dev/fd0h1440? And if so, _please_ let me have a look at this machine. I've been wanting to get my hands on a 5 1/2 " disk driver for _ages_. If not you should probably fix the program ... hare@lammermuir:~>WhoMaintains dosbootdisk dosbootdisk: dosbootdisk-1.1-38 package 'dosbootdisk' maintained by 'snwint@suse.de' Ah.
