Re: Mounting /fd0 (Was Re: Base2_0.tgz missing man command.)

| Now, I find that when trying to mount /fd0 I get  the error "can't find  /fd0 in /etc/mtab
| or /etc/fstab
| I have edited /etc/fstab to include this line...
| /dev/fd0       /floppy        auto      noauto,sync     0     0
| as per the instructions I found at www.debian.org/~hp/tutorial/debian-tutorial.html
| however I get the same error message even after shutdown and reboot.

Try 'mount /floppy' or 'mount /dev/fd0' instead. They should both work.
There's no need to mess with /etc/mtab. It is written by mount and umount
as a log of which devices are currently mounted.
