Well, I don't know how and why, but I am now able to mount the floppy module on the system. Strange thing is, I can only mount the Debian boot disk as a msdos disk, although I have to mount a Redhat boot disk as ext2 disk. I also note, I can read, write and execute on my DOS partition, just like another filesystem. Is this normal, or I am having some problem with my system? But, again, my CD-ROM is not mountable at this point. Am I stuck here?
Best wishes, Chip
