I have a Packard Hell computer, Packmate 6200 (stop laughing), and surprisingly, it boots from the CD, even though there is no setting for that in the BIOS. Anyway, if I had the BIOS set to try A then C, when I used the backup command in lrcfg to set a new destination for config files, it would not show the floppy as a choice. I had to use custom. It would ask for the destination and file system which default to fd0 and msdos, so far so good. Then when I tried to backup that package, it would error with "could not mount device". Yet, I could manually mount the floppy no problem.
I don't know why, but I set the BIOS to boot only from the C drive, and when I tried to set a custom destination, the floppy showed up as an option, and everything is peachy. I looked at the lrcfg.back code and tried to see why it would give me gas about not finding the device, but I couldn't see why it would error. It works just fine now, with no problems. CS> This is a known bug with all versions prior to v1.0.1. The problem is with /usr/sbin/lrcfg.back, which was setting the actual backup device to "fd0" and not "/dev/fd0" when you entered a custom backup target. The /dev/ portion of all devices is not displayed to save screen space...
