Description: Linux floppy utilities
 This package contains utilities for formatting extra capacity
 disks, for automatic floppy disk mounting and unmounting, etc.
 .
 The package includes the following items:
 .
   * superformat: formats high capacity disks of (up to 1992k
     for high density disks or up to 3984k for extra density
     disks)
   * fdmount: automatically mounts/unmounts disks when they are
     inserted/removed.
   * xdfcopy: formats, reads and writes OS/2's XDF disks.
   * MAKEFLOPPIES: creates the floppy devices in /dev
   * getfdprm: prints the current disk geometry (number of
     sectors, track and heads etc)
   * setfdprm: sets the current disk geometry
   * fdrawcmd: sends raw commands to the floppy driver
   * floppycontrol: configure the floppy driver
   * General documentation about the floppy driver
 .
 Note that these utilities do not work for USB floppy drives, because
 there is no direct access to the floppy controller.
