Maybe we can find out with (with the device mounted at /mnt/floppy): mount | grep sdc Note that there is no FSTYPE in the lsblk output.

Now the device notifier says “Acessing …”, but after some time, again tells “You are not authorized to mount this device”.Ĭommand lsblk shows at this point /dev/sdc as type “disk” without a mount point.
If I plug it into a USB slot, the device notifier pups up, OK telling me that I am not authorized to mount. Actually, I want to read it on one of my openSuSE systems. I have a TEAC USB floppy-disk drive, and I have a test disk that I can read with a floppy disk drive included in a Windows computer. I need to read some legacy floppy disks (3,5") which have been written a long time ago by Windows systems.
