Thanks for all the advice. Done the above and then I tried 'mount
/mnt/floppy' and it said "mount: /mnt/floppy: unknown special file or
file system". This is with a newly msdos formatted floppy in the
drive. Also tried 'mount /floppy' after doing 'mkdir /floppy' and
it says .... "mount_msdos: /dev/fd0a on /floppy: Block device
required. Also tried it with ext2.
As a final check I took the lid off the computer to make sure the
data cables and power leads were still attached. They look fine.
Any suggestions ?
Thank you
