Can only mount /dev/fd0 read-only?!



Recently I lost the ability to mount /fd0 in anything but Read-Only mode.  
I'm not certain if it's something I did or a hardware problem.  I can 
read/write to diskettes in DOS/Windows without problem so I figured the 
problem was with Linux.  Lost patience trying to figure it all out so I 
reinstalled Linux on two new hard discs (they just happened to arrive at a 
convenient time) and I still have the same problem.  I can't write to /fd0 
in Linux.

Disclaimer: I am still quite inexperienced with Linux (about 3 months 
playing with it so far) so I'm not certain that I didn't do something that 
caused this.

Any ideas?

Jason
