Hi
I am trying to mount a floopy, in "The Linux Cookbook page 267" it says that I can do
#mount /floppy which I tried but it is asking for a type. well what type should I use? it is a floopy I just created "bootable grub floopy" and want to see what on it. thanks

fred:~# mount /media/floppy0/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/fd0,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

thanks
