I know this should be a simple thing and I know I've done it before. Isn't the command I keep getting the error 'No such device or address'. It's there. It's a link to floppy/0. What am I doing wrong?

is that fd0 ["f" "d" "zero"] or fdO ["f" "d" "capital letter o"]?
because it should be the number, *not* the letter. |

You are correct, that was a typo on my part in asking the question. I did use a 0 instead of an O when I typed the command at the prompt.
