Ya, it could be the problem. I had this same issue in LMDK8.0. I had a Adaptec SCSI Card that for some reason unbeknown to myself would not let me see the "/dev/fd0". I, also, had no such problem with the same SCSI card in 7.2. When I pulled the SCSI card in 8.0, all worked well with the floppy. Again, I am not sure of why this is, and I never received any feedback from the Mandrake people. Give it a try, especially if you are no longer using the card... -- J.
