Bureaucracy is the long
I get the same error if trying to use an ext2 formatted disk. It works okay

I sort of have that problem. Mine can read fat formatted disks, but not

The error that I receive is:
mount: block device /dev/fd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
/dev/fd0: Input/output error
The entry in /etc/fstab for my floppy is:
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev
Hello List,
I am using LM7.0b(Oxygen) which until yesterday was running well pending
receipt of LM7.0(Air). Then I tried to recompile the kernel which
succeeded apart from Kppp(since fixed) and mounting of floppies.
I have a problem which has previously been posted but following the
