Hello Linuxer !!
I usually mount my floppy having fat file system using mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy on my redHat system. Few days ago, i format my floppy using mke2fs and fdformat , but i couldn't mount it using command mount -t extf2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy ( extf2, is it right ? ), but it didn't work !! How should i mount floppy having second extended file system ?

------------------
best regards,
noprianto.

mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy works fine for me. you don't want the 'f' in the ext2.

I don't use Linux because I hate Windows (which I do) I use Linux because I like it.
