Re: Warning: Stupid Question Follows +How do I mount a floppy?

["Peter" <peter@easynix.com>]

For the future, make it easier:
mkdir /mnt/floppy
mkdir /mnt/cdrom
vi /etc/fstab
edit the fstab like:
/dev/fd0a /mnt/floppy msdos noauto,rw 0 0
/dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom cd9660 noauto,ro 0 0

save it with shift zz or shift wq
now just do a mount /mnt/floppy or mount /mnt/cdrom
