+.Sh NAME
+.Nm fdc
+.Nd Amiga custom chip floppy disk controller device
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "fdc0 at mainbus0"
+.Cd "fd* at fdc? unit ?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+device driver provides support for the mainboard floppy disk controller and
+floppy disk drives on Amiga systems.
+.Pp
+The driver supports the following floppy diskette formats by using
+particular partitions:
+.Bl -tag -width Dv -offset indent -compact
+.It "880KB " "3.5-inch " 11 sectors/track (``Amiga'') (a)
+.It "1.76MB" "3.5-inch " 22 sectors/track (``Amiga'') (a)
+.It "880KB " "5.25-inch" 11 sectors/track (``Amiga'') (a)
+.It "720KB " "3.5-inch " 9 sectors/track (``MS-DOS'') (b)
+.It "1.44MB" "3.5-inch " 18 sectors/track (``MS-DOS'') (b)
+.It "720KB " "5.25-inch" 9 sectors/track (``MS-DOS'') (b)
+.El
+On systems equipped with floppy disk drives capable of using high-density
+floppy diskettes,
+the driver automatically detects whether the inserted floppy diskette is
+either a double-density or a high-density medium.
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It "fdc: unable to allocate DMA buffer"
+The driver found the controller, but was unable to allocate the
+amount of chip memory required for its DMA buffers.
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr fdformat 1 ,
+.Xr amiga/autoconf 4
+.Sh BUGS
+In order to detect a floppy disk drive's capability of using high-density
+media, a high-density diskette has to be inserted for the duration of the
+autoconfiguration phase of the drive.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports neither the
+.Xr fdformat 1
+facility nor the
+.In sys/fdio.h
+interface.
