[PLUG] Unknown FS and mounting a Floppy

[Dan Roberts <Daniel.G.Roberts@sanofi-aventis.com>]

Hello All

I was given several floppys to see if they contained any data
The only clue that I had was that the disk was labled "UNIX"

So in my linux workstation I tried to mount the floppys via bunch of
different ways..All with no luck..bascially whatever I tried I was told
that the superblock could not be located.
Next I tried fsck and that failed
Next I tried fdisk and I was told that no Device contains neither a
valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel


Then out of deperation I performed a dd on the disks and it looks like
there exists data as the of shows at least some text output..

My question is>
Is there any other type of operation that I could do to figure out the
FS that is on this diskette?
(For the Windows diehards..I tried windows and it wanted to format my
disk :=)heheheh)

Thanks for any advice!
Dan
