Subject: "mount -t msdos .." fails w/ Linux 0.99pl7A
Date: 2 Apr 1993 13:10:54 GMT

I have installed the Linux 0.99pl7A source on top of an SLS 0.99pl6 install,
and successfully rebuilt the kernel.

Everythings seems OK, including X386, but I now cannot mount a DOS floppy

# mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt

fails with a message like this:

VFS: Disk changed ....

I looked it up in the kernel and it seems it thinks I am trying to
change a floppy disk during an I/O operation....

If I reboot with my old floppy disk (SLS 0.99pl6), it works again.

Anybody have a clue?

Dag

PS My harware configuration is
        486DX2/66 ISA, 128KB cacke, 20MB RAM (although
            I built the kernel with the max 16MB option)
        1.44 MB 3 1/2" floppy
