The above command won't work because I can't mount the floppy drive. I
just get you must specify the filesystem type.
If the file system type is System V I should be able to compile that
into centos right?
I will try all the other ideas that you all have given me tomorrow but I
don't mind spending some time tonight compiling for the old file system.
I have run make menuconfig and then navigated to sysv file system and
placed an * on it then saved the ran make but it gave me a error and
never finished the make.
