Unable to mount floppy after creating emergency boot disk

steven Burgess_2 — Wed, 04 Sep 2002 09:36:40 GMT

Hi all

What type of filesystem is created on the floppy via the Bootkit-1.01 creator

After creating the emergency disk I am unable to mount the floppy due to incorrect filesystem type. Any ideas

Thanks in advance

Steve

Hello Steven,

try mount -t proc /dev/fd0 /mountpoint
It works fine on my SuSE linuxbox.
regards
Dirk
