vfat is a module I confirmed it
Okay tried the # mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
and the drive mounted. I changed directory to /mnt/floppy
However when I attempt:
#cp /mnt/floppy/readme.txt /home/rwright
It starts copying (makes the floppy noises) then I get:
cp: reading 'readme.txt': Input/output error
* I confirmed it is a good disk I tried the same commands on my linux
box and it works fine.
* I also tried the copy command using a dos boot disk and it will copy
just fine after booting to dos.
Any ideas??
