Hi, I got my floppy mounted but don't understand the mystery behind it. What I did was: 1) removed the link to floppy I created manually from desktop. 2) opened the KDE control center. 3) under the Desktop section > behavior tab > show devices icon, checked the unmounted floppy 4) KDE now created the floppy icon in my desktop at this point my fstab looks that this (as suggested previously): (NOTE: fstab is one line) ------------------------------- /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,user 0 0 -------------------------------------- Now I can mount the floppy by double cliking the icon or just give command $ mount /media/floppy (as normal user) both works 5) Just to make sure it does work with the original fstab setting I changed back my fstab back to ----------------------------- /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 -------------------------------- 6) reboot fedora It still works without problem. Now, I am bit confused here. It seems like KDE does something behind. Does KDE use differnt ID or method to access the floppy? Thanks all for your valuable suggestions. Deepak K.
