I can hear the drive spin up, but at the end I get an error that /mnt/floppy cannot be found. Needless to say that when ran from the CD everything worked flawlessly with the same floppy. I checked and compared permissions/ownerships, etc. and all seems to be the same. Has anyone encountered this? A websearch did not result in any useful clues. Particularly since Knoppix uses a custom automount.sh script. I could really use some suggestions/pointers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Right click on the icon for the floppy select delete then right click on the desktop choose create new then floppy device in the device tab in the dialog that appears choose the /dev/fd0 from the menu then save the new shortcut.
