Hi I've got a LS-120 drive, 
(Execlent time saver by the way!) and it's set up as
the only floppy drive. 
FDC on mother board disabled and old 1.44MB drive 
removed. As it can read normal disks this is great, 
BUT Win95 is able to use it as A:, 
DOS boots disks from it like a normal floppy.
BUT I CAN'T get Mandrake-linux 7 to do the same.

During boot it's detected as hdd and editing
the line in /etc/fstab to 

/mnt/floppy /mnt/floppy supermount ...,dev=/dev/hdd

just causes KDE/GNOME/... to lock up when I try and
access the drive, but a command like;

<fstab>
/dev/hdd /mnt/floppy vfat ...bla...

<xterm>
mount /dev/hdd /mnt/floppy

works and is perfectly OK!
Is this a problem with supermount, has anyone else 
had the same problem? How do I fix it?
Please help, I'm fed up of reading every manual on
my HDD!

Gary.
