Hello,
since 2.3.99pre6-6 I observe that with one of my machines floppy access
isn't possible. Other machines work well even with newer versions.
Up to 2.3.99pre6-5 all machines can access the floppy correctly.
With the erroneous machine syslog is filled with the following messages :
[2.3.99pre7] :
May 13 01:18:20 (none) kernel: Trying to lock fdc while usage count=0

May 13 01:18:20 (none) kernel: VFS: Disk change detected on device fd(2,0)
Who does have a patch for that behaviour ? Further info on request.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / kind regards
