I just tried to save something to my floppy drive for the first time since
I reinstalled 6.1 and when I try to mount it I get the message:
mount: /dev/fd0 already mounted or /mnt/floppy busy
I'm pretty sure that fd0 isn't mounted. Catting /proc/mounts yields:
/dev/root / ext2 rw 0 0
/proc /proc proc rw 0 0
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 rw 0 0
/dev/hda5 /home/vanbalen/vmware ext2 rw 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0
localhost:(pid421) /net nfs
rw,rsize=1024,wsize=1024,acregmin=0,acregmax=0,acdir
min=0,acdirmax=0,noac,addr=pid421@localhost:/net 0 0
/dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrw iso9660 ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,nosuid,nodev 0 0
and running df on /mnt/floppy yields:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdb5 20G 2.0G 17G 11% /
So unless fd0 is mounted somewhere else (which /proc/mounts suggests it's
not), I have no idea what the problem is.
My entry in fstab also looks fine (I haven't changed the default):
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto
sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide 0 0
Any help would be appreciated. I need to be able to use my floppy kind of
urgently.
