The device is /dev/fd0 (standart 1,44 IDE floppy, controller fdc). When accessing bad floppy disks the kernel complains for a while and then all virtual consoles lock... ttyv*, ttyp* (used by telnet) and don't know about serials. Total lock, when you type it doesn't appear. Everyhing else seem to work fine (networking, routing, services...); the debuger (ddb) too, but I don't know what to do with it :). The solution is the F0 key (Ctrl+Alt+RESET). ... To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
