Bug Description

Gfloppy is a simple floppy formatter for Linux. It supports the DOS format and the ext2 file system.

The program is very useful and user-friendly especially for people who are familiar with windows floppy formatter. There is actually Kfloppy formatter but there are no such application for gnome in the Ubuntu repositories.
