[plug] floppies

Anybody ever have trouble accessing floppy drives? 

I get messages like:

# mount /floppy
mount: /dev/fd0: can't read superblock

# umount /floppy
umount: /dev/fd0: device is busy
umount: /floppy: can't write superblock


This comes and goes. I sometimes if I su it mounts, sometimes it
doesn't. Some days I can read and write no problem. The floppy works
fine under windoze. I usually reboot to get it to work. 

Any pointers or suggestions?

Thanks 
russ
