Floppy problems :(
Hi there,
I have just installed knoppi onto the hard drive of my spare computer, everything went smoothly. OS boots up fine,
But there are 2 problems
1. No sound, my sound card is a creative soundblaster PCI 128
2. Floppy doesn't work... error reads
"error file or directory does not exist file://mnt/floppy"
Any help would be apprieciated.

also..
me again..
regarding the floppy issue, I tried in konsole as root..
Code:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
I recieve an error stating
"mount point /mnt/floppy is a symbolic link to nowhere"
So I checked in the file location /mnt, I have an 'unkown link' icon with floppy written underneath, when I check what this file is it says
"floppy->/mnt/auto/floppy (unkown link)"
So then I tried
Code:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/auto/floppy
and I recieve
mount point /mnt/auto/floppy does not exist

Fixed
Just to let you know its fixed.
I just deleted the Unkown link entry and created a new floppy device entry in /mnt as /dev/hd0
Fixed

Try just using /floppy for the mount point ie. mount /dev/fd0 /floppy and for the sound use either sndconfig or /etc/init.d/alsa-autoconfig to use alsa. If you use alsa then edit /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh and put the line aumix -w 75 -v 75 at the bottom of the file to set the default sound levels on boot. All this as root of course.
