/me raises the hand, my amd test box has one. I was surprised when I got the machine a few years back. And I never ever actually used the floppy drive in all those years. > Kidding aside, media change detection doesn't fully work, isn't going > to be fixed, and floppy passthrough just isn't earning its keep > anymore.

And you can usb passthrough it to the guest. Case closed. Reviewed-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kra...@redhat.com> cheers, Gerd
