1.44mb disk formated = 1.38mb left??
I was formating a couple of floppy disks, to make room for a ftp install of suse. However, the files you are suposed to put on the floppys are 1.4 mb. I thought "Fine, I have a 1.44 mb disk here". But appearantly windows uses 600kb on....tmp files or something.
If anyone knows how I might fix this problem, I would be very grateful!
Thx
