Upon mounting a write protected floppy and attempting to modify disk contents on it, the kernel will crash. This may cause serious problems as the disk can be umounted/mounted read/write and used to crash the machine. >How-To-Repeat: Turn write protect on floppy on, mount disk r/w, attempt make a change on filesystem. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
