The drive definition file in `/usr/local/etc/fddriveprm'
========================================================

   `/usr/local/etc/fddriveprm' (1) contains a dictionary of commonly
used media descriptions.  Each description is identified by a name,
which can then be used by setfdprm or superformat to refer to it,
instead of an explicit description.

   Each definition starts with `"drive'_number_`":', followed by the
actual description.  Definitions may be spread over several lines, for
better readability.  The file may contain comments, which start with #
and stop at the end of the line.
