No, it shouldn't necessarily be listed in fstab, but I suppose it could be. In any case, use of mount(8) should do. Read that manpage. Also, this would be probably be more appropriate on the freebsd-question list. Assuming that the floppy is DOS formatted, you could do something like this (as root): # mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt Nathan --=20 gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys D8527E49 --GyRA7555PLgSTuth Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/aC2CO0ZIEthSfkkRAh0kAJ4ytGJtP76gIVG7zlhI/4b9rK1KSACgpoR5 OpwP6IK50EuxcXgcwnhxII8= =4uF1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --GyRA7555PLgSTuth--
