Is anybody else having trouble mounting FAT-formatted floppy disks (normal,
3.5", 1440KB floppies -- even unused, pre-formatted ones) on 5.0-CURRENT?
Here's the output when I try to mount a FAT floppy (which reads/writes fine
under Win2k/XP - used as one of several backups for some schoolwork (though I
certainly don't trust my work to a single floppy, or a single media type in
general)):
terminator# mount_msdosfs /dev/fd0 /floppy
mount_msdosfs: /dev/fd0: Input/output error
terminator#
I cvsup'd and rebuilt kernel and world 2 days ago, on April 25, but noticed
this problem a couple weeks ago... My kernel config file has "device fdc" in
it.
I'll take this question to the -current list pending a the response I get
here... :) Thanks!
