Re: 3B1 Floppies

I'm working on changes to the linux sysv filesystem driver so it can mount UNIX-PC filesystems -- there are some slight variations in the superblock format that need to be detected and automatically handled.   It works OK for a hard-disk filesystem image, but I don't know about actual floppy disks or floppy images.  I don't think there's any difference.
