Re: How do access hda, fd0, etc. ?

[hilliard@metrolink.net (hilliard)]

     Several people have suggested mounting the dos partition with:
mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /mnt

     If any text files are involved, the different newline characters in dos
and linux can cause problems.  Adding the conversion option to the file
system specification in the mount command can reduce that problem.  Try:

mount -t msdos -o defaults,conv=auto /dev/hda1 /mnt

Good Luck

Bob
