I would add just one thing to Torsten's very complete and informative response about mounting a floppy. The fdutils package contains a program called fdmount that can automate many of these steps. In particular, this program checks the type of filesystem on the floppy and inserts the appropriate -t option in the mount command. $ type fdmount fdmount is /usr/bin/fdmount $ dpkg -S /usr/bin/fdmount fdutils: /usr/bin/fdmount -- Douglas Bates [EMAIL PROTECTED] Statistics Department 608/262-2598 University of Wisconsin - Madison http://www.stat.wisc.edu/~bates/
