i'm having floppy disk troubles and i hope you can help me
out... i popped my disk in this computer yesterday
(m2-225-11) only to then realize that the computer does not
seem to be communicating with the floppy drive -- there's no
"floptical" icon on my desktop, typing "eject /floppy" at
the athena prompt gives me the message "eject: No such
device. Check your scsi id, fsname, or dir.", and in
general things do not seem to be good. the big problem is
that i can't even get my disk out of the computer! so
anyway, i would appreciate any help you are able to offer --
i would be very grateful to get my disk back. many thanks
in advance.
