What kind of file system do you have on your floppy disks? Is it "good" old msdo? Then: a. Check the floppy. Does it have the little plastic piece correctly placed? E.g. can you write to it from DOS/Windows? b. Check the mount options. Try to mount it like this: 'mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy' or perhaps: 'mount -t msdos -w /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy' -- Jon Haugsand, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.norges-bank.no -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
