 Maybe it's write-protectd.  I've seen strange things happen
 with those disks.  I didn't get that error when I tried
 just now, but now I can't unmount the thing.

Neither did I when I tried yesterday, but I was able to dismount it
with umount /mnt.

can't mount floppy

2005-07-15 Thread Olga Zenkova
Hi!
I can't mount floppy on FreeBSD 5.4. I run the usual
command:

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt

and get /dev/fd0: No such file or directory

When the kernel loads I see:
fdc0: floppy drive controller port ... on acpi0 

What does it mean?

Thanks,
Olga

Do you have the necessary device in /dev?

# ls -l /dev/fd*

In case you the device node /dev/fd0 exists you'll find further 
information in /var/log/messages. If not then show /var/run/dmesg.boot 
completely.
