Well, I have tried floppies with files only, directories only, and a
combination.  So far I have stuck with EXT2 file system.  Here is one
of the floppies directory at the root of it.
[brian@rlghncwsbms2 brian]$ ls /mnt/floppy
.           lib         pcmcia.cgz  usr
..          lost+found  tmp

Also, I have the fstab setup for a floppy and a cd-rom.  It does not
mount them at boot but I have them set up so I do not have to type any
more the I have too to mount them. 

Thanks for the help you have given me so far.  I am glad that I was
not to far off on the configuration.

Brian
