Making a Mount Point

Until now, we've only talked about Fedora Cores convention for mount points Other Linux systems use different conventions, in order to make mount points name slightly more recognizable SuSE uses just /floppy as opposed to /media/floppy on Fedora. As you just figured out, naming convention is not standard. Remember, a mount point is merely another directory on the system. Why not use your own convention?

For example, you can use the SuSE convention as mentioned above on your Fedora system;
$ su
# mkdir /floppy
# mounr -t vfat /dev/fd0 /floppy

You could edit the fstab file to make it permanent.
