43.Cd "fd1 at fdc0 unit 1"
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45This is an interface to the builtin and external floppy drives on the Atari.
46Currently, there is no disklabel support for the floppy drives. Instead, the
47floppy interface uses the partition number embedded in the minor device number
48to distinguish between various floppy formats.
49.Pp
50Currently, the following formats are supported:
51.Bl -column header Partition Size sides tracks sectors/track
52.Sy    "Partition   Size   sides  tracks  sectors/track"
53    a       360Kb    1      80          9
