I got this error trying to mount floppy disc ( if floppy compiled
into kernel )

 mount: block device /dev/fd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
  mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/fd0,or too
many mounted file systems

With floppy compiled as module - I can mount floppy disc and read
it,
but when floppy was removed before umount , system crashes.
It happens in Xwindows using mount.app .
There was total lockup - no oops,no core, - sytem just got frozen
 with no keboard,no mouse, no telnet from outside.
