This seems like it should be so simple, but it just won't work. Using 'Gnome Floppy' and 'Floppy Formater' completely hangs my system, so I've been trying to format a linux floppy so I can save some files.
I've tried "mke2fs /dev/fd0" AND "fdformat /dev/fd0" both of which appear to have worked, i.e. no error messages. I can "umount /mnt/floppy" then "mount /mnt/floppy" without a problem. Yet when I try to copy anything to the floppy, using "cp testfile.txt /mnt/floppy", I get the error message: cp: cannot stat '/mnt/floppy/testfile.txt': Input/Output error What does 'cannot stat' mean? What am I doing wrong? -- cervixcouch [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.fastmail.fm - One of many happy users: http://www.fastmail.fm/docs/quotes.html
