Nestor (nestor-esther) wrote : I did this script to mount floppy, and works!

in a terminal I wrote:

*nano samplescript.sh*

it opens an editor, in the blank space I wrote:

*#!/bin/sh
**udisks --mount /dev/fd0

*then I saved* *the file in a carpet I named as Ubuntu.scripts as*
mountingfloppy.sh
*
Again in the terminal i give it the permits*
*
*chmod 777 **mountingfloppy.sh

*And then I placed an icon in the top panel executing this script*.

It works fine.

*The idea came after reviewing* *some multitask scripts*, *just after I sent
you an email asking for this sort of thing.*

*Sorry for the trouble. *
