Hi all,

I am working with software that comes on a diskette with a format that
under SCO is accessed by the device /dev/rfd0135ds18, ie r (raw,
unbuffered) fd0 (floppy drive 0) 135 (135 tracks per inch) ds (double
sided) 18 (18 sectors per track).

Being newish to unix can someone please tell me how to create a floppy
device that meets these specifications under FreeBSD 2.2.2.

Thanks,

Hugh.
