I have a floppy
So do we all. What's the problem? :-?
Let's try again: I have a floppy, a CD reader, and a cd writer. SuSE 9.3.
Surely there must be some reason why you're announcing this to a few thousand people. Maybe you should share it too.
I don't know why the message is being truncated. I will attempt to finish it here. The system refuses to see these drives. It certainly saw the CD reader when I installed Linux. Help!
Removable media drives THEMSELVES do not "show up"
What "shows up" are filesystems on disks inserted into these drives.
Hope that helps.
It doesn't really. A blank floppy or CD will not have a filesystem on it. However, a music CD will not have a "filesystem" on it, but it should be recognised and playable, but it is not, here. If a disk drive is not recognized by the system, how do you know what its drive number or name would be? Of course, if you only have one floppy, then it's FD0, but if you have various drives, then what? --dm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
