Proper command for what? To mount a floppy? I'll assume you want to mount a DOS-formatted floppy, since you're mailing with Win95, so cd /mnt mkdir floppy mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c floppy Then you can use /mnt/floppy just like any other directory. When done, just umount /dev/fd0c There's also a port called mtools for working with DOS floppies without mounting, but I've never used it. __________________________________________ Charon@freethought.org http://members.home.net/tuathadedanann/ "Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth." -Albert Einstein __________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
