Default DD-floppy

Sys: Linux Suse 8.2, KDE 3.1.4
How do I read DD-floppies. It seem that the 720Kb filesystem isn't working
on my system. It worked on previous versions of Suse.
I need to transfer files from Amiga to my PC, using a DD-floppy
(720Kb)formatted with MS-DOS filesystem. My Amiga can do that, but my Linux
PC can't.

This is more a comp.os.linux.something question.

man setfdprm

or use one of the funky device names like /dev/fd0H720
