fdformat doesn't accept any params except -n.
I was able to get the format and file system copy to work by doing the following:
setfdrpm /dev/fd0 2880 18 2 80 0 0x1b 0x00 0xcf 0x6c
fdformat /dev/fd0
mke2fs dos /dev/fd0 --this only worked as root?!?
There's got to be an easier way to do it than the above, right? Is there something I can set somewhere so that the setfdprm step can be avoided? Can I make /dev/fd0 just default to the value I set in the setfdprm command when I mount the device?
