I loose the floppy Icon every time I reboot. To get it back I need to
run "modprobe floppy", this may not be too much of problem, but I still
can't access the diskette when I try to access it by double click the
icon the message appears "unable to mount location no media in the
drive" , by the way the diskette and floppy are OK with windows I also
try few other diskette. I do not know how to access from command line.
Any idea what else I could be doing wrong?
