>Description:
Normally we store file checksum information on a write protected
floppy to avoid our detection system from being compromised.  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.
