My floppy drive is 1.4/1.2 Mb on Windows but only 1.4 on Linux.
Old junk machines occupy my working space only because of necessity
for handling old 1.2 fds. If Linux can handle them, I could get
rid all of them. Is there a way for Linux to have dual mode fd
driving(format/read/write) ability?
Thanks in advance.
