Hi, I mounted a DOS formatted floppy using the command "/sbin/mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy" I then tried to copy several files onto the floppy using "cp blah.c /floppy", every time I try to write to teh floppy I get the following error message "cp: /floppy/blah.c: Permission denied" I even unmounted and remounted the drive with the -w option to ensure that it was read/write. Any help on this matter would be appreciated. -- ********************** David Abdemoulaie ICQ - 21360590 mailto:DAcash18@vt.edu ********************** (c)copyright 1998 by David Abdemoulaie.
