I am able to mount/umount a floppy, but any time I try to format it with gfloppy I get the same error.
...when I select Formatting Mode Quick. I got an error that the disk was mounted. This tool should auto-unmount before formatting. After formating, the disk does not re-mount to the desktop. ...when I select Formatting Mode Standard I get the error: Could not determine current floppy geometry. ...when I select Formatting Mode Thorough I get the error: Could not determine current floppy geometry. Additionally, I had to start floppy as gksudo gfloppy which means that to access the disk I had to be root and which also means that the floppy cannot be written to by a normal user. There needs to be a serious revision of this tool. The floppy drive I am using is a Toshiba PA3109U-1FDD USB floppy drive (0644:0000 TEAC Corp. Floppy) -- gfloppy could not determine current floppy geometry https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/274904 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
