BUT, when was the kernels floppy.c reworked such that it needs special patching to handle a floppy format that uses sector zero? There is a patch, but its for the floppy.c in 2.6.4 and thats a vintage kernel itself today. And it won't apply to recent kernels, been there, done that. That emasculates it so bad that half the vintage computer formats are disabled. Dumb... -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
