Hi folks, I've got the above device which I've connected to my box. However, I can't mount it. I think the USB side is working fine, because running usbview shows the device, and the relevent modules are loaded. Below are the outputs from the lsmod, and a cat of the /proc/ devices file. However, when I try to mount the device, using mount -t msdos /dev/sda1 /mnt/floppy I get the bad fs or superblock error message. If I use a different device number it makes no difference. Anyone got any ideas?
