Subject: [BUG] floopy driver bug in 2.4.20
Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2003 22:10:16 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44.0301072158490.620-100000@unicorn.sch.bme.hu> (raw)
Hi all,
I found wierd bug in the floppy driver. When I have _no_ floppy inserted
in the drive, I get the expected ENXIO every _other_ (second) time, but I
get success (!) the other times:
root@brefatox:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/fd0u1440 bs=1440k count=1; echo
$?
dd: opening `/dev/fd0u1440': No such device or address

root@brefatox:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/fd0u1440 bs=1440k count=1; echo

...and so on...
Why is this?
root@brefatox:~# dd --version
dd (coreutils) 4.5.4
