I had a little trouble understanding your post.  Do you mean that you can't
connect to the internet from Linux, so you do it in Windows and put the file
on a floppy.  Then you boot to Linux and copy the file from the floppy?  And
now you have a file (Glide_SDK-2.2-11.i386.rpm) that's too big for a single
floppy?  And you meant 3.8 megabytes (not 3.8 K) right?

If I understand this correctly and you are dual-booting, then mount the
Windows parition from within Linux and copy the file directly.  Just type:

mount -t vfat /dev/hda /mnt/windoze
ls /mnt/windoze

That lets you copy the file directly from the Windows parition.  Make sure
you create the (empty) directory /mnt/windows first.  Also replace 'hda'
with the device of your windows hard drive.  I also assumed that you are
using Windows 95 (the vfat part).


Good Luck.
