i did search the archives-couldn't find what i was looking for.
a whiles back i created a bootable floppy with the v.5.2 firmware
upgrade on it. i thought i would check to see what was on the diskette
so i issued a #mount /dev/rfd0c /mnt command i got a response of:

/dev/rfd0c on /mnt: Block device required

so i tried
#mount /dev/fd0c /mnt instead and got:

/dev/fd0c on /mnt: No valid filesystem exists on this partition

not what i was expecting. i tried rfd0a fd0a, too. nada.
i didn't try mtools as the it's not a dos floppy.

thanx!
