   FYI, I've filed a PR about this for a record (PR port-sparc/42516)
   and also committed a workaround for PR port-sparc/42193
   ("tar zxpf /dev/rfd0a" doesn't work).

i finally got some floppies last night.  i'll report on how well
they work soon..

   I don't have any docs. Does it also mention about AUX register?
   I doubt it mention a quirk that Solaris also had a problem..


hmm, my initial search has not turned up what i thought i would
find..  i'll keep looking.  yeah, auxio may be relevant.
