Atlantic,
Do you get any error messages during boot up? You can use the command
dmesg to review the boot messages stored in the system's ring buffer (I
think that's what they call it). Basically, typing dmesg will display
all of the startup messages that you see displayed in rapid sequence
during boot. If you see something amiss in there that's related to the
floppy it might help you diagnose the problem. Also, if you're using the
floppy during a logged in session, are you unmounting it before pressing
the eject button? If not you may be damaging data stored on the floppy
and I am guessing that you might also get some type of error message on
shutdown.
Anyway, just a few things to think about.
Regards,
Richard Huelbig
