IIRC umount fixed it.
Nope, it says /floppy is not mounted according to mtab, which is correct, /floppy is not mounted. Someone else suggested checking the codepage modules, but this is not the problem. I have no problems mounting/umounting floppies until I (try to) mount a non-formatted one. Just in case, however, I loaded the modules manually anyway. No luck. Like I said, I can still mount the floppy to other directories, but that doesn't solve the problem. The floppy module never gets unloaded and /floppy can't be mounted to. This is unacceptable. I would think this is a bug in the kernel (the mount() call) or in the mount program, since mount segfaults before its done. I'm guessing it isn't unlocking the directory or something. -- Eric Gillespie, Jr. <*> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't you try to out-weird me!
