Your bug is much more deeply rooted. I just booted MS-DOS 7.1 this morning. Under it I can both read my floppy drive A and format my LS-120 drive D. When I boot Ubuntu I cannot do even one thing with the floppy. It shows up in the folder manager but you can click on it all you want, nothing

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected precise ** Description changed: No matter what you do, you cannot high level format a Super Floppy. It's a rather unbelievable situation since FreeBSD seems to have provided a driver back in 1998 or earlier.

It is still an issue. I have a broadband connection with a 5Gig limit, not a limitless bandwidth cable connection. If you want something like that done in a timely manner, I need bootable CDs burnt and sent to me. I never download Ubuntu, I pay On-disk.com fir disks. Roland On Fri, 2012-07-27

Without wiping and re-installing an alpha release, just how is one supposed to test with an ISO? You don't include any floppy or superfloppy format utilities so there is no way to test from a stand alone CD. -- Roland Hughes, President Logikal Solutions (630)-205-1593
