What needs to be done to mount an LS-120 in the system? |
| Solution |
An LS-120 is treated just like a regular hard drive, with the exception that in the /dev directory an LS-120 will be displayed as "fd0".
MOUNTING
The LS-120 will require the use of the Fsys.eide driver. Make certain that this is running in the system. Once running check the /dev directory for a "fd0" entry.
If there is a "fd0" entry in the /dev directory, then the drive can be mounted.
mount /dev/fd0 /fd0
***However make certain that there is a disk in the LS-120 drive when the mount is attempted. Also the user must be logged in as "root".
Once the drive is mounted, it should appear in the root directory of the system (/), under "/fd0".
UNMOUNTING
In order to retreave the diskette from the drive, the drive MUST be unmounted.
unmount /dev/fd0
Once this is done, the floppy/LS-120 disk can be ejected. |
