Your advice works for me.

Thanks

As above, however it may hard to figure out how to enable MSDOS
support.  Unfortunately things are now setup that you have to enable
'Native Language Support' before the msdos and vfat options are even
displayed.

  I'm told that fs type msdos is not supported by the kernel.  When I try vfat
  the same.  When I try ext2, I'm told it is not a valid block device.

can't mount floppy

1998-09-05 Thread Hank Fay
I rebuilt my kernel (Hamm) for firewalling, and included the floppy support
option.  However, since then I can't mount the floppy drive.  I see it
recognized (fd0) at boot up, but when I

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy

I'm told that fs type msdos is not supported by the kernel.  When I try vfat
the same.  When I try ext2, I'm told it is not a valid block device.

Any ideas appreciated.  This did work before the kernel rebuild, from
install.


Thanks,

Hank
