Hi,

Does anyone has positive experience with KVM using non-standard floppy
image size?

SIZEKB=8192
mkdosfs -I -v -C dosfs-8M.img $SIZEKB
sudo mount -o loop dosfs-8M.img /mnt/tmp1/
echo aaa > /mnt/tmp1/a
kvm -fda MSDOS71B.IMG -fdb dosfs-8M.img

I get drive not formatted error when trying to access B: from dos.

Please help.
Thanks

Tong,

Do you actually have a floppy drive (and media) that can handle 8
megabytes? That seems rather unlikely, as the standard 3 1/2" (iirc)
floppy is 1.44 MB.
