In addition to extremely slow access (r/w) it would appear (at least on my 2
machines) that the 'sync' option under the mount command has NO effect (this
was not the case in 9.3). I am running 10.2 GM x86(i386) and x86-64 and the
'fstab' entries are identical "/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0
0". Directory conflict arises between KDE 'system:/media (floppy)' and
'/media/floppy' because the floppy drive is NOT being accessed for each and
every operation and the two are not kept in sync. Therefore, if files are
removed from the floppy via '/media/floppy' they will still show up in
'system:/media (floppy)' as a result of caching instead of the FAT being
accessed on the floppy like it should be. BTW, it took over 5 minutes to write
a 365KB text file to floppy via Console. Can not even be done via KDE due to
stalling and the transfer rate starting extremely low and going lower until
stalling again. This behavior exhibits itself (via the file transfer window) on
each and every write operation where the file size is bigger than a grain of
sand!
