I'm running NetBSD 1.0 on a 486.  I've been trying to create
a boot floppy to upgrade with, but I'm having problems writing to
the floppy drive.  It's a 1.44M drive recognized as fd0 at boot
time.  The command I'm using is:

dd if=kcadp11.fs of=/dev/rfd0a

	I'm assuming /dev/rfd0a is the correct device to specify.
I've tried /dev/rfd0a - /dev/rfd0h and /dev/fd0a - /dev/fd0h.
The *BSD FAQ seems to indicate that /dev/fd0a is the correct
drive.

	The error messages I get every time I try writing to
the drive are similar to the following:

Feb  3 00:30:54 callisto /netbsd: fdcresult: timeout

Feb  3 00:31:09 callisto /netbsd: fd0a: hard error writing fsbn 0 (st0 0 st1 0 st2 0 cyl 0 head 0 sec 0)

	Does anyone have any suggestions for what might be going 
wrong?
