Mostly, but some computers (the Amiga for example) have issues with
dd-formatted hd discs.

Apart from the Amiga, however, there is no point in floppy discs (and
even that has net access for the things that don't need to boot off a
'copy-protected' disc).

Floppies were made obsolete years ago. Stop using them unless it's
completely impossible.

Nothing is completely impossible.
