Hi all,

dmesg doesn't show anything unusual but trying to mount disks known to be good 
results in mount: /dev/fd0: Input/output error.
Also fdformat does not work. It shows me every sector bad.
Btw: How can I format a floppydisk in a USB-drive? fdformat /dev/da0 doesn't 
work.
The USB-drive is fine, also is the standard floppy drive.

I'm running FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #20: Sun Oct 12 23:31:45 CEST 2003

Thanks,

-Harry
