*** Bug 82388 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This also happened on my machine when I did a *clean* install of Phoebe2, and attempted to create the boot diskette with previously used diskettes (i.e. not "brand-new" media). I was able to create the boot diskette with these very same diskette(s) under Phoebe 1. N.B. my "floppy" is actually an LS-120 superdisk drive attached as Primary Slave, which mounts as /dev/hdb. No problems accessing diskettes in Gnome, and under KDE I simply have to change the properties of the desktop "floppy" icon to point to the proper device instead of /dev/fd0 (the default). *** Bug 82716 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 81595 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Me too. Identical scenario. Tried 3 floppies including one previously unused. Fixed with mkbootdisk-1.5.0 and newer kernel |
