| |
Hi! since at least 2.4.0-test5 (the oldest kernel I have around) floppy support is broken on alpha. If I e.g. do od -c /dev/fd0 | more I get all sorts of weird stuff (parts of libc, directory contents, other binary data) but not the floppy's real contents. Mounting of floppies also doesn't work. The floppy drive and controller hardware is presumably ok since I currently sucessfully boot MILO from it.
System is AXPpci33 'noname', onboard floppy controller gcc version 2.96 20000925 (experimental) Linux kernel 2.4.0-9-9 (problem exists since at least 2.4.0-5)
Does anbody else have this problem?
Where can I start hunting this down?
Bye, Thorsten
