There is one regression, though: 2.2.x and 2.4.x can see /dev/fd0 and /dev/fd1 under vmware. 2.6.1rc1 only find /dev/fd0. Does anyone else see this? There's quite a few changes in floppy.c from 2.4 to 2.6 - I couldn't quite spot what could be the culprit. -- v -- v@iki.fi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
