Hi,

I downloaded submount-0.9 and 0.8 source code to my
Fedora 2 (kernel 2.6.1-1.65). And make rpm for it and
install, the internal floppy drive works well using
subfs, but USB floppy drive (SONY) seem does not work.
I always get the message "No medium found". It used to
work well with subfs in Fedora 1.

Thanks.

Rocky

    I tried make from source code and "make install", It seem to
    work well on Fedora 2. I am still trying to make rpm now.
    Sorry about that.

    I tried subfs with Fedora Core 2 test1 version, it works
    well. But when I try Fedora Core 2 test2 version, I can make
    install and load subfs module easilly; But when I use
    "mount" command to mount subfs, the follwing error appears:

    "mount: block device /dev/fd0 is write-protected, mounting
    read-only
    mount: cannot mount block device /dev/fd0 read-only"

    I tried USB floppy & cdrom drive, same error. How can I fix
    it? Modfy some configuration?

    Thanks.

    I found the reason why I can't mount. I just disable (or
    change to permissivemode) SELinux, it works well now. I'd
    like to see in SELinux policy to see how I can modify it.

    Thanks.
