This is what it does:
If I just say "mount /mnt/floppy2" it says:
/dev/fd1: Input/output error
mount: block device /dev/fd1 is write-protected, mounting read-only
/dev/fd1: Input/output error
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

So I specified the file system type:
mount -t msdos /dev/fd1 /mnt/floppy2
And it says:
mount: block device /dev/fd1 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/fd1,
       or too many mounted file systems

I wonder if I need to specify the block size or something.

Thanks,
