1. Copying files from a floppy disk:
a) mount the floppy (bad floppy might cause a kernel panic!)
mkdir /floppy (if it does not yet exists)
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /floppy
Now you can copy the files as usual (cp).

You can also put the following line into your /etc/fstab and use
mount /floppy to mount your floppy
=20
/dev/fd0.1440 /floppy msdos rw,noauto,nosuid 0 0
b) use the mtools port: ports/emulators/mtools
Be sure you have this line in your /usr/local/etc/mtools.conf
drive a: file=3D"/dev/fd0"
=20
Now you can use mdir, mcopy, etc. just like on MSDOS
=20
2. Extracting rar archives: Use the ports/archivers/unrar port
Cheers,
Simon
