Hi,
when working with virtual machines and diskettes I often use 2.8 MB diskette images.
In the last time I noticed a strange message when formatting the diskette with format a: /F:2880 and running
chkdsk a: after this. Chkdsk reports a "suspicious descriptor in boot" - even if not yet a sys is on the
diskette.
Under certain circumstances that I could not reproduce for the moment, MS Scandisk even tried to correct
files on this diskette.
I could not yet see this message on 1.4 MB floppy images till now.
One more thing: format a: /F:0 shows a list of supported formats, but exits with the comment:
Parameter value not allowed - /F:0 - and this although it is mentioned in help text and WORKS!
