HI

For some reason I cant mount a floppy under debian

mount /media/floppy0 

doesnt work, says I need to specify the file system? but its auto in fstab!?


Plus when I try fdformat , when it verifies it says

Double-sided, 80 tracks, 18 sec/track. Total capacity 1440 kB.
Formatting ... done
Verifying ... Problem reading cylinder 0, expected 18432, read 8192


any ideas?
