How to use floppy disk on RH9?

["jiangyi178" <jiangyi178 rogers com>]

Dear friends,

I found floppy disk is difficult to use:

Every time I use floppy disk drive, I have to launch a Disk Manager from
Tools menu in Start menu,
then insert floppy disk, go back to Disk Manager, mount the floppy; then I
can use the floppy drive
normally.

After usage, I need to go back to Disk Manager, unmount the floppy, then
take out the floppy disk.

Is there a better way to operate floppy drive?(similar to PC's way)

(other issues are: if on the Nautilus file manager, the floppy drive is the
active directory, then I cannot unmount
the floppy drive; also, if I take out floppy disk before unmount, Linux will
freeze).


Thanks a lot in advance!

Best regards,

Richard
