Problems with KDE Floppy Formatter (fdformat??)

[Oliver Schmidt <oschmidt@math.uni-kiel.de>]

Hi,

if I try to format a DD floppy with the KDE Floppy Formatter, I get the 
following error message:

> Cannot create a filesystem on: /dev/fd0u720
> mkdosfs:unable to allocate space for FAT image in memory

I'm using KDE 2.1 and Potato.

Formatting HD Disks works.

Perhaps the problem has something to do with the now obsolete "fdformat"?

Regards,
            Oliver
