If you use fdformat to format the floppy in Linux, you still need to use mkfs to build a file system on the floppy. Otherwise, you will still get this error, even after the format.
/dev/fd0 is only permitted if fdformat knows the format already or can find it out from the floppy.
You can use mount /mnt/floppy to try again. Or better still, get a disk you know is good... and try mounting that.
Good Luck, James Kosin -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
