Somewhat better in the sense that no panic occurs when accessing/probing
the floppy.  This could get you in an endless panic/reboot loop when
a floppy was left in the drive.

But not good either:

ds10#fdformat /dev/fd0
Format 1440K floppy `/dev/fd0'? (y/n): y
Processing EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE done.
Errors encountered:
