> Any method to formatting and putting a new file system on and getting even > close to the 1.44k on these floppy filesystems? The newfs command has a set of default options which give reasonable values for creating a filesystem on a hard disk. For a floppy, these represent a grossly excessive number of inodes (which is where all that space disappeared to). Try newfs -l 1 -i 65536 -t 2 -u 18 fd0 instead. -- James Raynard, Edinburgh, Scotland james@jraynard.demon.co.uk jraynard@FreeBSD.ORG
