Hi, Group:
Many thanks to all who responded to the many e-mails on this subject.
The problem is with that particular floppy disk. The SuSE install
program offers to create a boot floppy and also to write the LILO
information to the same disk. The disk was somehow corrupted and had
no identifiable file system(s) on it.
I made another boot floppy and the system mounted and read it without
difficulty.
Sheesh!
Best regards,
Glenn
