Whenever I give the command #mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy, I get the following promt; msdosfs: /dev/fd0: Input/output error. I also wrote msdosfs instead of msdos and try other floppies but the result is same. I can read and write in those floppies in windows so I think the floppies are not defective. And plz tell me how to format floppy with FAT and UFS. Thanks & Regards Trumvect __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo!
