Just loaded FreeBSD 3.4 from CD-ROM onto a Gateway Solo 2500 Laptop computer. I am unable to mount the floppy drive. I receive an 'input/output error' after entering the mount command. When I use the 'dmesg' command, I receive the following - /kernel: fd0: recal failed ST0 70<abnrml,seek_cmplt,equ_chck> cyl 0 /kernel: fd0: hard error reading fsbn 0 (No status) I've tried using 'mount -t /dev/fd0 /floppy' 'mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy' 'mount /dev/fd0 /floppy' I have created '/floppy' in the root directory. Any ideas? regards, Dana E Morrow Comm: 618-256-1114 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
