i am have trouble getting my cdrom to mount and also floppy that are vfat.
when i try to mount my cdrom i get the error "mount: /dev/cdrom is not a
valid block device"  also when i try to mount a floppy with a vfat partition
to put some modem drivers on i get an error to the effect of: fs vfat not
recognized by kernel. i'm running redhat 6.1

also, just to see if it can be done. i have windoze on my slave drive, two
partitions of it so i figure it would be hdb....anywho, is it possible for
my to mount one of those partitions to transfer some files from hard drive
to hard drive. i.e. picture files, mp3s, bookmarks and other shit.

any info would be greatly appreciated
