Hello all,

 I am having a Dickens of a time with this supermount.  I am using the
 new Helium and either in root or my dir, yes I can click on my floppy
 icon and access the floppy disk.  However, if I want to use the floppy
 for anything else, say to make a mkbootdisk, I cannot access my
 floppy.  I get "not a valid block device" ... Or sometimes, I have to
 umount the floppy first and then mount it again. It varies. On the 7.0
 version of Mandrake, I did not have this problem.  My floppy icon
 could be either mounted or umounted, by right clicking it, or using
 the command line.  
 
 What is the purpose of this supermount?  Why do I need it?  How can I
 turn it off, so that I can use my floppy like any other distro?
 
 Regards,
 Gary
