Hi all,
I tried formatting a new floppy under linux using  the command
#fdformat /dev/fd0H1440
but while verifying I am getting a message "Input/output error. Problem
reading cylinder 0, expected 18432, read -1".
And the floppy became unusable. I tried with another new floppy with the
following commands
#mknod /dev/fd0u1440 b 2 60
#fdformat /dev/fd0u1440
Again it resulted in the same error. And i could not use the floppy again.
Is there any way to recover this.

-Logu
