Hi all!

I am using the mandrake kernel 2.2.17 with supermount 
activated (I have tried compiling it into the kernel and 
as a module) 

I have the following problem: 
*) if I cd to a (super)mounted directory on a floppy    (e.g.
/mnt/floppy/XYZ/ where /mnt/floppy is the mount point for
   the floppy)
   and I remove the floppy from the drive, doing an ls leads to an
   i/o error. Nothing wrong with that. BUT: supermount is unable to
   mount floppies after this procedure until I reboot my machine.
*) before the said procedure, producing i/o error messages takes about
   2 seconds. After the procedure it takes about 20 seconds (Maybe this
   is significant to you...)

Does anybody have an idea as to how to solve this problem?
Does anybody happily use floppies with supermount without problems?

Although I haven't checked, I guess the said behaviour should be the
same for CDs...

Any hints are greatly appreciated.

Flo
