Title 'mount() /dev/fd0: not a directory' error when mounting floppy drive
Ref. No. QNX.000009444
Category(ies) Utilities, Filesystem
Issue While trying to mount a floppy by issuing the command 'mount /dev/fdo /fd', we get the error
'mount: mount() /dev/fd0: not a directory'.







Solution There is probably a file called /fd which is causing this to fail.
Run the command ls -l /fd, if there is a file listed, then you will either have to remove this file, or choose to mount your floppy as something other than /fd.
