[woody] floppy access error

[Dimitri Maziuk <dmaziuk@yola.bmrb.wisc.edu>]

Hi all,

anyone knows of any gotchas with devfs and floppy? Or maybe
woody floppies? -- I'm getting

# dd if=root.bin of=/dev/fd0
Jan 31 17:07:03 odyssey floppy0: sector not found: track 0, head 1, sector 1, size 2
dd: writing to /dev/fd0': Input/output error
19+0 records in
18+0 records out

# dd of=/dev/fd0 if=driver-1.bin
dd: writing to /dev/fd0': Input/output error
19+0 records in
18+0 records out
Jan 31 17:07:33 odyssey end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy), sector 18

# dd of=/dev/fd0u1440 if=driver-1.bin
dd: writing to /dev/fd0u1440': Input/output error
19+0 records in
18+0 records out

from different floppies. The error is always in the last sector.

PS. Don't bother telling me to use a different floppy, BTDT.
