Whenever I try to write to a floppy drive using Mtools-mwrite, I get the error message "/dev/rfd0a is busy." Could the "device busy" flag have been set somehow and is now not able to be cleared? Is this another problem? Thanks. Kolin +===========================================================================+ + "Guilt Trip: The nuclear weapon of relationships." -- K.
