You need to mount the floppy drive to do this.
Place floppy in the drive and issue the command:
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
Where /mnt/floppy is a pre-existing sub-dir. You don't have to use /mnt/floppy, it can be any sub-dir.
Once you have done this, you can use cp like you normally would, ala:
Once you are done, unmount the floppy with umount /dev/fd0 and you should be good to go.
hi i issued the above and the floppy is mounted. however, i cant do any ls or cp. BUT, i did a simple mount /dev/fd0 /floppy and it works... the option -t <filesystem> is for more precise, advanced control.. i guess
on my redhat 8.0, i did a mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /cdrom to mount my cd...
