I can read ms-dos files from the disk with "mread" but "mwrite" doesn't work. I try something like: mount -t msdos /dev/fd0a /mnt says, cannot find file mount_msdos, blah blah blah... the regular mount /dev/fd0a /mnt says bad block header or something. In case you havent guessed yet I'm new at this stuff but got a unix manual today and am studying hard! :) thanks, Andrew Brault
