Hi All,

I now have my own complete Suse Linux Pro. install disks and manuals.

I am logged into root.
I want to make a bood floppy, but I keep getting errors:

selected image doesn't exist on instllation medium.

Then another error about valid floppy medium or valid root permissions.

If I try to format it with Kfloppy, I get:
 Cannot Format /dev/fd0u1440

No Such Device or Address.

The Floppy Device icon on the desktop opens a window, and lists the files 
(DOS / win98) that are on it.

For a while, the eject button wouldn't work.

Thak you,
Dave
