Hi, I happenned to install 5.1 FreeBSD. I couldn't mount floppy disk. I noticed that /dev/fd0 did not exist. I tried doing a mknod using character device 9, 0 for fd0 but it doesn't work. The floppy devnode is not permitted to be created. Incidentally there seems to be a change in the devfs and the usage is not very intuitive. Is there anywhere the examples are given ? Particularly if I want to use the floppy disk how can I get around this problem. Thanks, Srini. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo!
