Hello list, Just found out I cannot mount floppies in Squeeze. I am on uptodate x86 kernel, linux-image-2.6.32-5-686 2.6.32-35
$ su -c'mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0' # or $ mount /floppy Puts out in messages ... [ 8744.146621] FAT: utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT filesystems, filesystem will be case sensitive! But no floppy is really mounted $ df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda8 3818640 3431832 1162828 76% / tmpfs 123336 0 123336 0% /lib/init/rw udev 118924 180 118744 1% /dev tmpfs 123336 0 123336 0% /dev/shm /dev/sr1 663552 663552 0 100% /media/cdrom1 as it should as per fstab $ cat /etc/fstab | grep floppy /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0 Is there a floppy support in 2.6.32-5-686 at all? In /boot/config-2.6.32-5-686 There is no floppy module set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEFLOPPY=m .... # # Please see Documentation/ide/ide.txt for help/info on IDE drives # CONFIG_IDE_XFER_MODE=y CONFIG_IDE_ATAPI=y # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA is not set CONFIG_IDE_GD=m CONFIG_IDE_GD_ATA=y CONFIG_IDE_GD_ATAPI=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECS=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DELKIN=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD_VERBOSE_ERRORS=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE=m # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEACPI is not set # CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL is not set CONFIG_IDE_PROC_FS=y .... Also noticed kernel boots with SCSI devices /dev/sda.. /dev/sr.. But my hardware is IDE/ATAPI based. How do I enable IDE on Squeeze?
