dmode /dd shows
nam=DD mgr=RBF ddr=rb1773 hpn=07 hpa=FF40 drv=00 stp=03 typ=20 dns=01
cyl=0028
sid=02 vfy=01 sct=0012 t0s=0012 ilv=03 sas=08 wpc= ofs= rwc=

dmode /d0 shows the same except for the nam part (which is D0 instead of
DD).  dmode /d1 is also the same.  I am only using 360k 5.25 floppy drives.
