Hi people,

A fresh installation of FreeBSD 3.2-Release,
(XServer installed and everything working well)
and I want to access my Floppy drive, as well
as my CD-ROM drive, But don't know how to
mount them.

My computer hardware is the following:
Pentium II 333MHz Celeron, DFI MoBo.,
32MB SDRAM, Seagate HD 6.4GB,
Trident 4MB Display Adapter, Opti Sound Card,
Floppy 1.44MB 3.5", 50x ATAPI CDROM 'Afree'

Thank you in advance!

Sincerely,
Fawaz Talal

assuming cd = cd0c

mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0c /mnt

(see mount(8) and mount_cd9660(8) )

For your diskdrive see mount_msdos(8).

For handy mounting see fstab(5).

e.g.:

[asmodai@lucifer] (2) $ cat /etc/fstab | grep cd
/dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0
0
