Install the mtools. Then you can simply mcopy things onto an IBM formatted floppy. The other way round, copying things from the floppy, works also with mcopy, but you should put the floppyname and filenames in brackets, if you want to use wildcards, like mcopy "a:bla*". But if you insist, yes, you can mount floppies too, mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /bla, just like hds........ Hope that helps--and have a nice weekend !
