Actually, since the driver will write whole tracks without checking the
previous contents of the disk, its possible to format msdos floppies
already.  You simply dd to the disk with the proper block size and use the
mformat utility from the mtools package. :-)  (rather round about, I know,
but it does work :-))

One thing that annoys me is that I can't seem to access raw msdos
partitions because of the fdisk info in front of the actual partition.
Anyone know of a way to skip that stuff?  It would .really. be helpful for
a certain ZIP disk I have...
