Description Mathieu Jobin 2003-11-26 09:05:29 UTC

Version:           2.2 (using KDE 3.1.93 (CVS >= 20031111), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-0.13mdk

Would be fun to add something new to this application.

- backuping floppy to an image file before formatting
   - backup optional
   - format optional
   - make sure you double verify file image before formatting the floppy
   - create md5

- format my disk and load that image in.

What I miss to see for this bug (despite the 2 voters) is how useful it would be?

Have a nice day!

Comment 2 Nicolas Goutte 2005-05-07 18:09:00 UTC

To be realistic: change the priority to "very low". Sorry!

(As for usefulness, meanwhile, I suppose that you want something heading to VGACOPY's functionality.)

Have a nice day!
