Accessing the CD-ROM
Accessing a CD-ROM is essentially the same as accessing a floppy disk. To access the disk, you must have the CD mounted. The default mount point for the CD-ROM is /mnt/cdrom. If you click on the kdelnk file associated with the CD-ROM, KFM will open a window focused to the /mnt/cdrom where you can access your files.
Preparing a New Floppy Disk
KDE provides you with an application to format floppies, kfloppy. Kfloppy is accessible from the application starter utilities group (see the next figure).
The application allows you to select the drive and file system format to use for the floppy. Note that kfloppy can only format disks when the disk is not mounted.
Kfloppy allows you to format floppy disks.
Check This Out: When you format a disk, you erase all the files the disk contains. Ensure that the floppy disk does not contain files you’ll need in the future before formatting.
The KDE Floppy Formater presents you with the following options when you want to prepare a floppy disk:
• Select the size and drive of your floppy disk.
• Select the density format. High density disks (HD) can store 1440K worth of information. Double density disks (DD) can store 720K.
• The file system choices are ext2fs (the native Linux filesystem, unreadable by DOS and Windows) or DOS format. DOS format will create disks which work equally well with Windows 95/98 long filenames or with MS-DOS filenames on older systems.
• After selecting your options, click format to initialize the disk.
• A quick erase doesn’t do a low level format, it only creates a new filesystem on the disk.
• Full format does low level formatting of the floppy and creates a new file system on it.
• Click to exit the application.
