I finally sat down and attacked the old pile of 5¼” floppy disks this evening, albeit not very successully. Most of them are unlabelled, there's a mix of DSDD, DSHD and even some SSSD disks in there, some were written by MS-DOS, some were written by Flex. I managed to read most of the 1.2M and some of the 360k MS-DOS floppies.
Other success story of the day was getting the sound working again on
wyvern, the modules that need to be loaded are, in order: soundcore,
sound, ac97_codec and es1371. Once this was done, all the annoying
beeps and blurts from the gnome desktop are back, and I can play mp3s.
