I used xv to take a jpeg screen-shot of the desktop. Then I tried to save it to a floppy using mcopy ( mtools ), but Linux will not let me do it. The following message comes up instead:
Can't open /dev/fd0: Permission denied Cannot initialize 'A:' Bad target a: When I change to root, I can use mtools with no problem. So I figure I have to add my user name to the "floppy" group. # addgroup <username> floppy also # addgroup <username> disk That still does not solve the problem. Then I looked up some archived debian- user lists on mtools and one of the messages said to modify my /etc/fstab file. Question: Am I even on the right trail to a solution? If so, what needs to go where in the /etc/fstab file? Or if I am completely lost, could someone send me in the right direction. Thank you, Monte Copeland Knoxville TN
