Morning,

what is the difference between fd0u1440 and fd0h1440? I stumbled across this
when I was trying to put image on floppy.

Is there a significant difference between:

mke2fs /dev/fd0
fdformat /dev/fd0h1440
dd if=file of=/dev/fd0

mke2fs /dev/fd0
fdformat /dev/fd0h1440
dd if=file of=/dev/fd0h1440

What is the most efficient way?
