Subject: Floppy disk for Unix...

It may be a very stupid question. I just wonder if we have commands to
use floppy disks as Unix disks, i.e. DOS may not understand such disks.
For now I just use floppy as DOS (using mtools) and I do not see the topic
discueesed in several Unix books.

Using "man -k floppy" I see some commands like "fdformat" fdwrite but how
to copy to the disks after formatting them?

Thank you for explanation and have a good weekend.
