[SLUG] Formating a USB Floppy

[Antony Stace <antony@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks

Can someone please tell me how to format a disk in MSDOS format with a
USB floppy drive.  I am running Kondara MNU/Linux 2000 which has Kernel
2.2.17-10k.
My computer recoginses the USB floppy as /dev/sda.  I cannot use the

fdformat

command since it only works on the devices /dev/fdXX. 


Cheers

Antony
