- Sounds like you are somehow ejecting the floppy without umount'ing it first...
-
- The autodiskmount daemon should be doing this though -- at least if you
- eject'ed the disk from the File Viewer... (I've seen this using
- "/etc/disk -e /dev/rfd0a" to eject the disk before, which doesn't do a
- umount first.)

- See the man pages for mount(8), umount(8). (Note section 8!!)
