Open Office Floppy Disk Save Question
I'm a Linux newbie and I just recently purchased Redhat 8.0. I was trying to save an Open Office word document to the floppy drive but I could only find a way to save it to my system. So, how do I save to my floppy drive?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

before you can access files off the floppy (or cdrom, zip) you need to mount them
you should be able to type
mount /mnt/floppy
and then save the file to /mnt/floppy
now before you eject the disk make sure to
umount /mnt/floppy
(yes umount NOT unmount)majorwoo
Quiet brain, or I\'ll stab you with a Q-tip.
