Depends what you want to do with the floppy. I won't comment on MS-Windows, but a single-disk FreeDOS floppy such as BALDER will boot to FreeDOS with vfat but not ntfs. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/unofficial/balder/ Regards, Howard E. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
