No, if you mean fdisk partitions. Yes, if you mean logical slices in a disk. In the LS-120 driver, I'm providing a 'disktab' file for using the LS-120 disk as one partition. If you want to use some slices, you need to write 'disktab'. > Does it work okay under FreeBSD with the standard 1.44 MB floppy? Yes. See http://www.jp.freebsd.org/~junichi --- Junichi
