Ok,
So now that I have a DS10, I tried to reproduce the floppy problem.
I can't:
ds10% sudo fdformat /dev/fd0
Format 1440K floppy `/dev/fd0'? (y/n): y
Processing VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV done.
Errors encountered:
Cyl Head Sect Error
35 1 13 CRC error in data field
36 1 13 CRC error in data field
Other than a suspicious floppy or a dusty drive, things look ok.
See for details:

BTW: is there a simple way to reset the SRM to a (near) virgin state?
