Changes between Version 4 and Version 5 of Ticket #41, comment 13

v4	v5
3	3	PS: in FORMAT, I see hidden sectors != 0 on USBMSD.ADD-emulated big floppy, so I decide that it is partitionable media, because the boot sector is not the 1st one. So, it is quite legal to access MBR and write there. And, I have no means to distinguish between emuulated and non-emulated media, so I cannot decide if I need to avoid writing to the MBR. So, it would be better to allow wirting there.

5		PPS: BTW, on my machine, writing to MBR seems to work. I don't see any errors when running FORMAT or CHKDSK. And I tried to wipe ~~the whole emulated harddisk, not only the partition,~~ and it works fine for me. I don't know what is not working on your machine, and why. So, we need to make it clear. The 1st thing we need is to take a log when you trying to format the disk.
