I first tried it simuliar with a trick to partition the floppy image with partition 1 at 32K Start. .. "losetup -o32256 /dev/loop1 fd.img" Once this worked somehow, but it was not really a usable rw floppy, as a special mount is necessary. And I could not reproduce it.

Now the script mk_fdb.sh below creates a legal editable rw vfat floppy (image). Could be even edited easily on DOS/Windows.


(in Grub2 v1.99 there seems to be a bug with the new and required option "-a" however. v1.98 is ok)
