Hello Lindsay, Thanks for your reply. It was the only one I got. I did finally get the fdutil installed. You got me to thinking and I tried something and then the install worked. I tried the /dev/MAKEDEV floppy-all and gave me the same error. I then tried /dev/MAKEDEV -c floppy-all and didn't get any errors. Tried the dselect install of fdutils agian and it worked. Don't ask me why as I looked in the /dev dir and there were plenty of fd* files there. Anyway here's my /proc/device print out and is pretty different from yours. Maybe someone can tell me what I did to correct this. I sure don't know.
