Greetings,
I am running FreeBSD on a pentium platform. The hardware contains a floppy
device. When I try to use the floppy I can format a disk, but I cannot
mount
the floppy. The command that I use is: mount /dev/fd0 /floppy. I get the
error message "Incorrect Super Block". I check the etc/fstab file and it
does
not show anything for /floppy. There were no super block errors during
installation and I have checked the compatibility of the hardware.
Does the mount command require any options or am I just missing the point
altogether?
I checked the FAQ site and there is not much on floppies.
