General Introduction
********************

Fdutils is a collection of utilities for configuring and using the Linux floppy driver.  With fdutils, you can:

 1. Format disks with a higher capacity than usual (up to 1992KB on a 3 1/2 HD disk).

 2. Reconfigure the autodetection sequence to automatically detect some of these extended formats.

 3. Access various internal driver structures and drive configuration using the floppycontrol program.

This manual describes these utilities, and also the floppy driver itself.
