I will double-check. Otherwise, I have noticed that, during reboot, I
get a message that my PCI ISDN config shows a conflict with IRQ 3 for
devices: 00:01:0  and  01:08.0 which might have some bearing on this
problem.

TIA,

Jeff

I think when you configure the kernel (make menuconfig) you did not 
make floppy driver part of the kernel. I also faced the same problem,
and I fixed it by making the floppy driver part of the kernel.

Let me know if this helps.

i think kernel is unable to find the driver for the filesystem type you are
trying to mount.
The supporting module is missing(if its compiled as module)or module path
is not correct

I am running the latest kernel release i.e. 2.4 .
I tried recreating the node but it has been of no use.
Can anyone please help me.

Ditto ... just posted similar message. Running RH7/with current package
updates from RH & newly installed 2.4.0 on a Compaq Presario 5000
(agpart/i810e, etc.) ... all is well except /dev/fd0 major/minor prob.

TIA
