FC2, can't mount floppy

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings;

I just discovered I cannot mount a floppy disk, all /dev/fd0* devices 
aren't valid block devices.

[root@gene etc]# mount -t vfat /dev/fd0h1440 /mnt/floppy
mount: /dev/fd0h1440 is not a valid block device
[root@gene etc]# mount -t auto /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device
[root@gene etc]# mount -t msdos /dev/fd0h1440 /mnt/floppy
mount: /dev/fd0h1440 is not a valid block device

Machine is FC2, running 2.6.10-rc1-bk15 kernel
                                     
Whats next?  I need to sneakernet some stuff to a dos machine.
