USB and FLoppy problems?
Is it just me experiencing problems lately with USB and mount_msdosfs ? When I mount my USB drives, which are fat32, I experience bus stalls and hangs of various types in the usb output. Sometimes complete system freezes. It does not matter if it is the built in usb 1 controller or an add in usb 2 controller. In addition just last night I tried to mount a floppy on /dev/fd0 to run a mysql dump script I keep there and mount_msdosfs errored, I'm starting to wonder if the two problems are related. The error when mounting the floppy is new but the usb problems crept in while I was at 5.4 before a source upgrade to 6.0. Prior to that usb worked fine. Mounting the floppy worked fine until a few days ago, right now I'm at 6.0-RELEASE-p5 and trying to figure out where the problem lies. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
floppy problems
Hi, I used to mount my msdos floppy with the command mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy but then after forgetting to umount it before shutting the system down one evening I now get the error message msdos: /dev/fd0: Device not configured dmesg lists only the following device that I think pertains to the floppy fdc0: NEC 72065B or clone at port 0x3f0-0x3f5,0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa0 Furthurmore /dev does contain devices fd0 but does NOT contain fdc0. I even tried the following command mount -t msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /mnt/floppy and got the same error message msdos: /dev/fd0.1440: Device not configured and yes /dev/fd0.1440 does exist. Also I tried mount -t msdos /dev/fdc0 /mnt/floppy and get the error message msdos: /dev/fdc0: No such file or directory Should I just remake the fd0 driver? If so do I just first delete the current fd0 first and then do a MAKEDEV? Or do you think maybe that my floppy hardware is shot because I am no longer getting the fd0 driver listed during a dmesg printout. Thanks for your help. Wayne __ Do you Yahoo!?
