Hi:
Hardly, because You need a floppy controller. You can tie a floppy controller
to an AT90S8515, but in that case You'd neeed some extra memory because You
must read 512 byte sectors one at a time. Better use some ATmega device with
more RAM an an external memory interface, that You can tie the floppy
controller to.
