Re: How do i us a Floppy Disk in Linux

Hi Aditya,
If u want to do raw format of the floppy, then use "fdformat <devicename
eg. /dev/fd0>".
To make the filesystem, use "mkfs /dev/fd0". If you want to use the
floppy in (DOS) vfat format, then install "mtools" package and then use
"mformat" to format the floppy.
