No, the iocharset option goes in /etc/fstab, apparently you didn't even bother to look at the file I presented, so at this point, I suppose you're not going to even *try* to make this work. Too bad. > and want to pass them somehow to > some unspecified agent that will actually mount the filesystem. Some unspecified agent? Give me a break Alexander. You are really stretching things here. The mounting is done exactly has it has always been done. No difference. > Could > you please explain how (with what command exactly) are you proposing to > mount floppies?

Wrong. > Also, your file from the next mail doesn't add the "codepage" option to > floppies. Sure it does. Examine the file again. Hint: it doesn't care that it is a floppy. It is going on the type of filesystem it is and adds the codepage option if it is the desired type of filesystem that needs it. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 23:19:00 up 100 days, 8:43, 3 users, load average: 1.08, 1.07, 0.75 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
