Status: Answered => Open
Rodney is still having a problem:
I think I did what was suggested with no rewarding results. Here is a copy of my latest attempts:
george@george-desktop:~$ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/sda5

# /dev/sda6

/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
george@george-desktop:~$ mount media/floppy0
mount: can't find media/floppy0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
george@george-desktop:~$ mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0
mount: only root can do that
george@george-desktop:~$ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy
[sudo] password for george:
mount: mount point /media/floppy does not exist
george@george-desktop:~$
Why do I get the error that the mount point does not exist? Thanks for
any suggestions. Rodney
