Hello. I installed and updated mcnlive toronto. Every time I launch mcc, a window pops up and says my floppy drive has just been discovered. Is this a bug? Is there a way to stop it? There is no disc in my drive. Thanks.

Can you post the content of the file /etc/fstab here?

Can't see anything wrong in your fstab. But I have not used a floppy drive in ages.

Why the MCC _discovers_ a new floppy drive at launch ... ?

You can force it to not detect floppy drives. run command: kdesu kwrite, open the file: /etc/sysconfig/harddrake2/service.conf

Change the line:
DETECT_FLOPPY=yes
to:
DETECT_FLOPPY=no

And hopefully this nonsense will go away. unsure.gif
