file:/mnt/floppy does not exist

[finder]

To the list;
I tried this suggestion. Again the floppy light went on briefly and then it went out.


knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/point
mount: only root can do that
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ su
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/point
/dev/fd0: Input/output error
mount: mount point /mnt/point does not exist
root@ttyp0[knoppix]#

any ideas?
