Hi *,

Got the message above while copying a 1.44 Floppy from 3.5" to 5.25" using
the following line:

felix root ~# fdformat /dev/fd1h1440; dd if=/dev/fd0 of=/tmp/disk; dd if=/tmp/disk of=/dev/fd1h1440
Double-sided, 80 tracks, 18 sec/track. Total capacity 1440 kB.
Formatting ... done
Verifying ... done
floppy0: timeout handler died: do fd request
2880+0 records in
2880+0 records out
2880+0 records in
2880+0 records out

Copied 3 floppys this way, and got this message two times.

Gerd
