NAME
     floppy -- Atari floppy interface

SYNOPSIS
     fd0 at fdc0 unit 0
     fd1 at fdc0 unit 1

DESCRIPTION
     This is an interface to the builtin and external floppy drives on the
     Atari.  Currently, there is no disklabel support for the floppy drives.
     Instead, the floppy interface uses the partition number embedded in the
     minor device number to distinguish between various floppy formats.

     Currently, the following formats are supported:

     Partition   Size   sides  tracks  sectors/track
         a       360Kb    1      80          9
         b       720Kb    2      80          9
         c      1.44Mb    2      80         18

FILES
     /dev/fd[01][abc]   Block files
     /dev/rfd[01][abc]  Raw files

DIAGNOSTICS
