This tremendous bug exist for ages, I periodically collided > with it from time to time... Are you mounting the floppy in read-only mode? I.e., are you doing `mount -r /dev/fd0 /mnt`? If you're not specifying the ``-r'', then I'm not surprised (I guess it should panic, not hang, though). If you are using ``-r'', then I can't reproduce this; I have a couple of computers with read-only floppies in them (for tripwire).
