Juanito:
This was done from a usb stick on a machine booted from the same usb stick - it doesn't have a floppy drive...

jpeters:
Comparing the two tinycore.gz files, I noticed earlier references to fd in the new version, for example in line 22 with numerous refs to /dev/fd, The only refs to dev/fd  I found in the older version were inclosed in "if" statements.  (eg line5626). 

curaga:
Do you have the floppy drive turned off in the bios? It's a good way to tell all OSes that you don't have one, and so not to probe it.

Yes, it's listed as "not installed" in the bios. Anyway, if the old version works and this doesn't, no sense trying to find workarounds if it's a bug. I can use the old version.
