drew Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 My Mandrake 8.1 has decided that /dev/fd0 is no longer a valid block device. How to I make it valid so I can see the contents of a floppy? I haven't knowingly changed fstab.drew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Hi DrewWelcome to the forum !As for your problem:Put a floppy in the drive and use konqueror to navigate and klick in the side bar on /mnt ( may take some time to open, what do you see ? Are the CDrom and floppy directory there ? Are they locked ?If it is still locked:Open a console and typesugive your rootpassword andmount /dev/fd0mount /mnt/floppyThat should take care of your situation.
