Problems reading Floppy Disk
 

Hello,

I am working on a Linux Red Hat Enterprise 3 (ES) server.
I tried to mount the floppy drive under the root user as folllows:

mount /mnt/floppy

I then try to copy files to and from the floppy to some folders on my Server.
However I noticed the following:

1) When attempting to copy files, I get a return message saying the file is read only or write protected.
2) Even if I change disk in the floppy drive I always see the same content.

Any ideas what is going on?
How can I get my floppy drive working normally again ?

post your /etc/fstab
