X-Mailer: VM 6.73 under Emacs 20.3.1 Cc: Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, I was grepping through the archives tonight and found from: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=1884403+1887301+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990614.freebsd-questions that fdformat + mkdosfs would format a floppy and put a DOS filesystem on it. That's what I was looking for! However, I cannot seem to find the binary or the source for mkdosfs (or a port). On my 2.2.8-STABLE machine it is /usr/sbin/mkdosfs and the source is in the appropriate place within the tree. I copied over the binary from this machine to my 3.2-STABLE machine and it seems to work without a hitch. So, the question: where did "mkdosfs" go? Has this been replaced by some other mechanism for formatting (DOS) floppies?
