Comment 10 for bug 239407

Sebastien,

just came across this bug report; why? -because in intrepid the floppy drive was not recognized at install time and there is no entry in fstab and no floppy in /etc/module; I was puzzled.

the panel disk mounter applet does not show any floppy drive.

so, I edited/added in fstab

/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto,umsdos,vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0

and created in /media floppy0 folder and added floppy to /etc/module file. after reboot still no joy.

is intrepid supposed to get the floppy drive (present) configured automatically at install time ? is the node created to this device at install time ?

regards,
peter b
