floppy drive with ghosts files


Hi, I'm running Mandrake 10.1 and I still remember the content of the floppy disk that I could read for the last time in the floppy drive. Now every time I try to access a floppy disk it just shows the same files from that last time, and It wouldn't read what it is in the floppy disk. I can even read, copy and paste the files but obviously they are not there because its a new disk with other content... its like this ghosts file have taken over the floppy drive.

Mount point: /mnt/floppy
Device: fd0
Type: auto
Options: supermount, unmask=0,iocharset=iso8859-15, sync, codepage=850, noauto

what do you think?
