Description Martin Karlsson 2003-04-09 23:30:09 UTC 
	Section 12.6 of the handbook, "Creating and Using Floppy Disks", 
doesn't quite apply to 5.0 or newer.  It also uses a rather informal 
style, and contains some grammatical errors.  This patch aims to fix this.

The modified chapter can be viewed at

How-To-Repeat: 	Read section 12.6 of the handbook.

This looks good, but the discussion about "FreeBSD 4.8 and older" 
should be reworded.  This will be wrong when we release FreeBSD 4.9. 
We really want to refer to "4.X and earlier releases" or something. 
We should not single out 4.8 or 4.9 for that matter, because we just 
don't know what the last release on the 4.X branch will be and we 
don't want to have to update this later.  You've made a lot of great 
improvements, so if you can update this patch to take this into 
account then I can commit it.  Thanks for the submission.
