Hi David, When I read your original post I started looking around for information about what to do if you remove a floppy disk before unmounting it. All I could find were statements like, "always run umount before removing the disk or there could be no end to problems!". It seems there are no easy fixes for the trouble you experienced. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. *---------------------------------------------------------* * Roger C.
