3" Floppy drive is attached to Adaptec-1542.
>Description:
Floppy disk is mounted (-t msdos) zip starts creating an
archive on it. At some point a bunch of fsbn errors
(possibly a hardware fault) appear (hard error writing,
cmd 4 failed, etc.) After this, zip waits forever:
0 222 150 0 -6 0 512 564 getblk D+ v2 0:00.06
zip -9 -r /diska/tcl75b2.zip tcl7.5b2
Note. Tar hangs in the same manner on tape-drive failure.
It can not be killed -- even shutdown does not kill it
(hangs in system call?)
