Floppy question

Unmount and then re-mount it before the ls command.

$umount /mnt/floppy
$mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
$ls /mnt/floppy

Maybe there is an option on the mount command to do the unmount and then re-mount in one command.  But, if there is, I don't know it.

How do I get my system to reread the contents of the floppy?  When I do an ls 
- -la I see the stuff that I created on a floppy a while back.  I now have a 
different floppy in it, but it still lists the old data files.

TIA
