You need to mount the floppy, this is easy to do. 1> Make sure you NOT in the /floppy directory 2) Put the disk in the drive. 3) type "mount /floppy" Your floppy should now be mounted, cd to /floppy and it will now show the contents of your disk, don't forget to unount the floppy when your done, this is easy too. 1) Make sure your not in /floppy 2) type "umount /floppy" ^ not a typo there is no only one n Cheers Joel -- No, Gates always knew the Internet was going to be important, just as Oceania has always been at war with East Asia. ;)
