After some more digging I've came to pretty much the same conclusion. So
after a few years of general inactivity, I'm going to update floppy with the
current device names, and I'll see if I can the upstream to update the fd(7)
man page. But until the updated floppy makes it way into the Fedora branch
of util-linux-ng, running MAKEDEV is the only workaround.
Hello, guys!
Thanks for the help you gave me. 'MAKEDEV fd0' did the trick - I can
format floppy as root. But when I'm trying it as usual user I have:
$ floppy --ext2 --format A:
floppy 0.16 Copyright 2001-2006, Double Precision, Inc.
/dev/fd0H1440: Lupa evätty
No formattable capacities for /dev/fd0
'Lupa evätty' means 'Permission denied'
Do you, Floppy GuRus, have a solution to that also?
