+.SH NAME
+fl \- floppy interface
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This is a simple interface to the D.E.C. RX01
+floppy disk unit, which is part of the console
+LSI-11 subsytem for VAX-11/780's.
+Access is given to the entire
+floppy consisting of 77 tracks of 26 sectors of 128 bytes.
+.PP
+All i/o is raw; the seek addresses in raw transfers should be a multiple
+of 128 bytes and a multiple of 128 bytes should be transferred.
+as in other ``raw'' disk interfaces.
+.SH FILES

+.SH SEE ALSO
+arff(8)
+.SH BUGS
+Multiple console floppies are not supported.
+.PP
+If a write is given with a count not a multiple of 128 bytes then
+the trailing portion of the last sector will be zeroed.
