Hey all - I have been unable to use my floppy drive to mount disks in FreeBSD. This goes for both the the 2.1 Release, and the most recent build of -stable, which I picked up on friday. When I issue a "mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt", the following is logged to to syslog: May 6 19:05:52 nikki /kernel: fd0: recal failed ST0 70<abnrml,seek_cmplt,equ_chck> cyl 0 May 6 19:05:52 nikki last message repeated 3 times May 6 19:05:52 nikki /kernel: fd0c: hard error reading fsbn 0 (No status) Note that the floppy drive never spins up. I'm don't think there is anything wrong with the drive itself, as I have had no trouble booting up with the the FreeBSD install disk, nor booting with a DOS floppy. Any ideas?
