 Hi,

You might like to look at mtools. This package/port
allows you to access dos floppies in a convenient
manner without having to go through the usual
mount/umount, i.e. :

mdir a:
mcopy unixfile a:
mcopy "a:*" .
etc ....

It also supports long filenames from WINNT/WIN95.

There is a bad sector check facility for floppies,
which is important.

Regards ...

This might seem a small victory but it is at least something this 
klutz has managed  ;^)
