FreeBSD crayon 3.3-STABLE FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE #0: Wed Oct 13 15:14:24 CDT 1999 root@crayon:/u2/src/sys/compile/g6_da0_crayon i386
>Description:
fdformat prompts for user confirmation. it exits 0 if the user
doesn't confirm, which needlessly complicates scripts.
>How-To-Repeat:
in sh:
fdformat -f 1440 /dev/rfd0 && newfs_msdos -f 1440 /dev/rfd0
if user doesn't confirm, newfs_msdos is run anyway.
>Fix:
Line 292:
if(! yes ()) {
printf("Not confirmed.\n");
return 0; /* change to 3, for instance */
}
