floppy devices



does anyone use the floppy devices other than fdX ? linux autodetects
nearly all formats, so i plan to remove all other devices from the boot
disks and base (only new installations, i won't touch existing setup).

you will still be able to create floppy devices :
 - makedev can generate them (only the default set doesnt have them)
 - fdutils has a script "MAKEFLOPPIES", that determines the type of a
   drive and creates all missing devices / removes all useless devices.

comments ?
