Hi overthere...
I had a problem with the access to my floppy but I solved this with running "modprobe floppy", before access to the mount point. Well, I have a simple question now: How can I do to don't need to execute modprobe before accessing to that device?

I supose it's related to modules.conf... but I'm not sure...

Thanks in advance.
Gens.

gens,

Add floppy to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
All the modules listed there are loaded at start up.
