 Using 3.4-RELEASE:
 
 The dd command using the char device (rfd0) works fine (no panic), but =
 using the block device (fd0) panics.
 
 On to the open->suspend rationale:
 
 Mounting a writeable floppy, pulling the disk, write-protecting it, =
 replacing it, and then writing to the FS results in a console message =
 complaining about writing to a write-protected media (expected), but =
 when the FS is unmounted, a kernel panic occurs.
