I wonder it that means Plan 9 and Linux use different precompensation

ours out of a floppy controller description.

turned out to be a fail(ing)(ed) floppy.  Linux had not reported any errors
and it cmp'ed fine.  After installing w/ a new floppy, bootsetup:floppy
reported i/o error trying to use orig. diskette.
