Here it worked a little different. It created /mnt/floppy to /dev/hdb
(which is the LS-120), but the LS-120 disks must be mounted as /dev/hdb1
for it to work. I prefer a mount point of /mnt/ls-120 (what if there is a
real floppy in the system?), but that's a nitpicker point.
The thing that I found odd was in the LILO setup it made an entry for
floppy pointing to /dev/fd0 when there is no floppy in this system (only
the LS-120). If Mandrake is smart enough to point /dev/hdb to
/mnt/floppy, it should be smart enough not to make a bogus entry for a
floppy device that doesn't exist (but it still needs to point to /dev/hdb1
not /dev/hdb or it won't mount).
This is in beta3.
