if it is an internal ide drive, you need to mount it as a hd.... ie.  "mount
hdc" on my system...
if you have an external, there will be more to do (like add paralell support
to your kernel..)

| Hi I'm very new to Linux and was wondering if anyone knows how to mount
and
| LS-120 Super Drive? I'm using Red hat 5.2 and I get several errors when I
| try to mount it like a regular floppy 3.5 drive.
|
| Here is the message I'm getting:
|
| end request: I/O error , dev 02:00 sector 0
| end request: I/O error , dev 02:00 sector 0
| end request  I/O error , dev 02:00 sector 2
|
| /dev/fd0 : Input Output Error
|
| end request: I/O error , dev 02:00 sector 0
|
| mount block device /dev/fd0 is write protected, mounting read only
|
| end request: I/O error , dev 02:00 sector 0
| end request: I/O error , dev 02:00 sector 0
|
| /dev/fd0 : Input Output error
|
|
| Thank -you in advance, I've been lurking for a week or so and you folks
have
| helped me out several times.
