Hello,

there used to be a floppy formatting tool for 386BSD 0.1 which worked
quite fine for me, but which stopped working after some patch kit
patches. Now I switched to FreeBSD and: Is there any such thing out
there? I found the format tool quite useful, for I don't want to
reboot in order to format a single floppy.

Thanks
