# mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy # mount | grep floppy /dev/fd0 on /media/floppy type vfat (rw) # uname -r 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5smp # rpm -q util-linux util-linux-2.13-0.20.4 # umount /media/floppy # lsmod | grep fat vfat 16833 0 fat 56285 1 vfat ... so, it works as expected. I think there must be some other problem. Please, check your system logs, dmesg output and your kernel modules. I just noticed that I hadn't rebooted after installing 2174 and that /lib/modules had been updated and that is most likely the cause. I don't have the floppy here and won't be able to confirm this until tonight. However assuming that it does work tonight, I'll close out the ticket as NOTABUG. I retested the floppy and it mounts now. So it looks like not having a modules directory for the running kernel was the cause of my problems. |
