Probably your floppy does not have a minix file system, if so then do
read about mkfs.
Now regarding CD's. There are these ISOtools( isodir, isoread,
isoinfo). They will not solve the problem of mounting a CDROM but could
help in reading or copying files.

hi, Soni -
thank you very much!!!
I resolve the problem on the floor using "mount -r /dev/c0d2p0
/mnt",becase of cd-rom is read-only.
