Floppy probs.

[Craig Andrews <nospam [at] fishbot.free-online.co.uk>]

Hello all,

I seem to be having a couple of problems with my floppy drive. When I try
to mount it as a normal user, I get the error '/dev/fd0 has wrong major
or minor number'. The file has major and minor 2 and 0.The permissions
are:
	brw-rw-rw-

Also, when I try to mount it as root, I must specify the full line,
including device, mount point and filesystem.

The line in fstab reads:

/dev/fd0	/floppy	auto	noauto,user	0	0

Everything worked OK til yesterday. I could mount it from my user and it
would autodetect the filesystem. Now, this happens.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Cheers,

Craig
