Hello, I am trying to format a floppy with ext2 file system but each time I try, mke2fs is hanging. I am doing: # fdformat /dev/fd0 and then # mkfs -t ext2 /dev/fd0 here, mke2fs does not finish and the light on the floppy drive will not turn off. I cannot kill mke2fs. I have Suse 6.2 but I just tried upgrading the ext2fs.rpm to the one from Suse 6.4 but with the same results. I tried three different floppy disks but no success. I also have Redhat 6.1 on this machine and I can format there with no trouble. Does anyone know what's going on?
