I looked up stuff in the manual, and I typed mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c /floppy and I got the response mount: /floppy: no such file or directory I know the floppy drive is configured for the system, 'cause it shows up on the startup when I reboot. second part of this question: how do I get to the file on the floppy disk, after I mount it? I think I'm too used to GUI stuff here, gosh on my mac, it would just show up on the desktop and I'd point and click. Oh yeah, this is using FreeBSD 2.2.7 I know I'll be laughing and kicking myself when someone tells me how to do this, cause it must be ridiculously easy. thanks! --alissa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
