Hmmm... didn't see it mounted, but I'll try more tonight. Last night included a) playing with system, and b) finishing up our federal taxes....

I also can't seem to find the USB 3.5" drive I borrowed - lsusb sees it (at least since the last reboot), but trying to find it to mount it is something I'm still digging at, and I doubt mtools can find it.
As far as I remember (I'm not as young as I used to be, and it's been a while), the 3.5" USB floppy drive here would recognize a (formatted) floppy when inserted and mount it automatically, on Centos 5.x. (assuming it contained a recognizable filesystem...)
Even if there's nothing about floppies in /etc/fstab? Or is that something I need to configure for autofs?
now that I"m running 6.4, I haven't tried the floppy drive yet.
(I have piles and stacks and drawers of 5.25 and 3.5 inch floppies with various stuff stored on 'em. I used that usb drive (and an internal 5.25 inch drive) to grab images of all of them (with dd) which I'll eventually organize and burn onto CD or DVD, so I can get rid of all the floppies.)
Exactly my goal right now.
