floppy install
I have added a floppy drive to a rececent Mint install that is working well. The floppy is apearing in BIOS and appears to be properly installed. I do not see the drive in the Mint desktop "Computer" window. How do I install this drive in Mint or does this sound like a hardware problem?

Re: floppy install
You may just have to mount the floppy drive.
Have you looked in /home/media? Any fstab guru's available?
I'm reaching here, but I am interested in the outcome.

Re: floppy install
It may be as simple as placing a disk with data on it into the floppy drive. I recall seeing that on a post a few months ago.
