Solve problems one by one ;-)
I would define an entry in the /etc/fstab for the floppy, and use manual
mount only. I do that for dvds, haven't tried floppies.
I have often noticed that after I mount a device, I can not umount it
because the famd daemon is using it; so I simply do "rcfam restart", then
umount. A nuisance, certainly.
You can check like this:
nimrodel: # umount /mnt/
umount: /mnt: device is busy
umount: /mnt: device is busy
nimrodel: # lsof | grep /mnt
mc 32042 root cwd DIR 7,1 31 128 /mnt
bash 32044 root cwd DIR 7,1 31 128 /mnt
so I know who is the culprit...
