Hello group,
I have on several machines this problem: they are continously trying to=20 access the floppy drives. Two drives already defective, due to the=20 mechanic stress.
Try reversing the cable to the drive (pin 1 at the wrong side). At least that's what happened to mine... Now it apparently works.
The mainboard does not have a floppy controller, so I use an SCSI floppy drive, it is working with a floppy disk inserted.
dmesg shows following continously: [1537682.559487] sd 0:0:3:0: [sdc] Read Capacity(10) failed: Result:=20 hostbyte=3DDID_OK driverbyte=3DDRIVER_SENSE
That's not the floppy. It should be "/dev/fd0". Would be nice, to have this enumeration.. but does not work for SCSI and USB floppy disk drives, but it works for my optical and streamer device /dev/sr? / /dev/st?.
