Put in the floppy in and use mcopy a:filename /tmp/wherever
You might need to be root, depending on the setup.

Hi,
Make sure the directory /mnt/floppy exists
then unless you have set it up differently
you have to be root to mount it. Here is
the command I use to mount windows floppies
mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
I actually have it in a x file called WinFloppy
that reads as follows
mount -t vfat /d
format
floppy in win 98, then
mount
-t msdos /dev/fd0 (?) /floppy
Sorry,
can't remember the device for the floppy drive. I think you can DOS format a
floppy in Linux too.
