[aclug-L] Re: accessing the floppy drive from linux

[phrostie <phrostie@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

if your floppy has an entry in /etc/fstab the all you need to do
is type mount /dev/fd0 then go to the mount point.
normally the mount point is /mnt/floppy or something like that.

startx starts X

they are editors, they come with most distributions.
there are other editors, i use vi.
choice of editors is one of those flame wars things.
just find something your comfortable with.
