by Hi,
I am having problems with my 3 1/2' floppy drive.
I am at home with my SPARCstation 2 (Solaris 2.5.1) logging in via ISDN.
Before being configured for ISDN, my floppy drive worked, but now I
can't
seem to get it to read diskettes (UNIX or DOS).
My particular need is to have it read DOS formatted disks so that I
can install Windows 3.1 for WABI 2.2.
Here is my /etc/vfstab file:
cocacola:/mnt/home/thekid 1 % more /etc/vfstab
#device device mount FS fsck mount mount
#to mount to fsck point type pass atboot options
#
fd - /dev/fd fd - no -
/proc - /proc proc - no -
/dev/diskette - /pcfs pcfs - no rw
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s1 - - swap - no -
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s0 / ufs 1 no -
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s7 /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s7 /mnt/home ufs 2 yes -
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 /home1 ufs 1 yes -
/dev/dsk/c0t2d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s0 /home2 ufs 1 yes -
/dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 - /cdrom hsfs - no ro
swap - /tmp tmpfs - yes -

I have these directories:
/dev/fd
/pcfs
/floppy
Here is my /etc/vold.conf file:
cocacola:/mnt/home/thekid 2 % more /etc/vold.conf

Any help, in letting me know what I need to do, would be great.
Thanks,
