Also I have used the vfat switch for the type and it works with no problems.

Thank You,

Subject: Difficulty mounting floppy


Hello All:

Over the weekend I reinstalled RH 6.1 on the Linux only box.  Before I
go on line with it though I wanted to install Bastille Linux.  I
downloaded a copy of it from the Windows box and then tried to mnt the
floppy with,

	mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

but I get this back,

	mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock...

I know the drive works and I have tried two different floppies.  I
also tried formatting the floppy with Win and Linux and still get the
same error.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,

Mike
