I am just curious about floppy formatting. I like the KFloppy interface but have found it somewhat unreliable. When I format it in dos format it seems to work but sometimes I end up loosing data after using the disks. Since I don't share my disks much anymore since I have everything networked I figured I would be better off using ext2fs. It is also an option in KFloppy so that would make it easy. .. .not! When I use KFloppy to format in ext2fs after doing the format I get a long stream of kernel errors from the verify process. So my question is: What is the best filesystem to use for my floppies and what is the best way to format them? As a sidenote I know that the config in yast that I stored on a floppy used minix format by default, is that related or is there a reason for that? -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Darren R.
