Anyone??help....

Are you using NFS?

What is the exact error message for modules.dep?

What do you have for fd0 in /etc/fstab?

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

Something like that should work.

If the actual problem is the major/minor numbers, then check the device fd0 in /dev.

Well, about module.dev, it say that it cannot read/write on it. what that mea?? also what is nfs?
And what do i'm suppost to be looking at fd0 in /dev??

[mdwatts]

Check to see if modules.dep exists in /lib/modules/<kernel version> and the permissions are rw-r--r--

NFS is Network FileSystem and unless you are mounting remote Unix/Linux filesystems, you won't need it. I'm not familiar with whatever system configuration tools that RH6.2 comes with. Try to find where you can disable the NFS service from starting.

Do you have /dev/fd0 in /etc/fstab? Does fd0 exist in /dev?

grep fd0 /etc/fstab

ls -al /dev/fd0

fd0 should have the 2 , 0
