[Gllug] Un-supported writing to floppy

[Benedikt Heinen]

> dont forget to unmount it after saving your work

...especially don't forget to umount your floppy BEFORE ejecting it from 
the drive - and patiently wait until umount is finished, because otherwise 
not all data may have been written to the disk...


I don't know for SuSE, but aren't there isn't there a package called 
"mtools" or something (should contain "mwrite", "mread", ...; a lot of 
little scripts to read, write, delete, list, rename files on floppy disk 
without having to go through explicitly mounting/umounting the drives...
