I had a similar problem about a year ago. All floppies I used, even
brand new ones, were showing bad sectors and recording faults. I was
blaming the floppy manufacturers and trying out with different makes
without success. Finally, I decided to get my FDD examined and learnt
that it was out of alignment. The same FDD is performing very well
since, both with windows and linux, and I am also able to read and write
to all the so called bad floppies collected earlier.
