[CLUE-Tech] VFS issue

[Kevin Cullis]

Lynn,

I inserted a floppy and accessed my hard drives via the GUI icons and it
seems to have stopped the ide1, but not the floppy fd(well, sort of).
This may have stopped the problems I've been experiencing, I'll check my
logs later today. Thanks for the help, Lynn.
