Re: Dumb; help! I removed a mounted floppy
i am afraid i don't think there is any graceful way to get out of a problem caused by peeking a look at the disk label whilst copying from it ;)

Subject: Dumb; help! I removed a mounted floppy
I was using git, and while things seemed to be idle I snuck the floppy out
to peak at the label. I put it back in. Then after the next operation I
got:
kernel panic: msdos_write_inode: unable to read i-node block
floppy0: disk absent or changed during operation
end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00, sector 3
Now the program responds to nothing, not even KILL. To make things more
interesting, I got the bright idea to mount the floppy again, so now two
processes are in limbo. Is there a graceful way to solve this problem??
