Odd question; this box has 5 installed, I can't access the floppy
drive- it doesn't show up when I click on the Computer icon on the
desktop. I thought the drive might not be connected correctly, since I
can't remember if the floppy was accessable when I set the box up. My
laptop, I orig had 5 loaded (same story with the floppy drive), then
upgraded to 6; w/6, I can access the floppy drive.
I set up a second box w/5 over the weekend; the floppy disappeared
after running patches and installing programs. Has anyone else seen/have
this happen? Is there a way to correct things?

What happens if (as root) you enter
mount /dev/fd0 /media/<your pre-existing mount-point>
this mounts the floppy for me.

I'm fairly new to linux; where would I log into root and enter mount?
In any terminal window, use su. Be sure to use the "-" after the command
[jmccarty@Presario-1 0DataSheets]$ su -
Password:
[root@Presario-1 root]# pwd
/root
[root@Presario-1 root]#
Note the difference in the prompt. My "current directory" is now the
root home directory, and I am root. To get back, use "exit"
[root@Presario-1 root]# exit
