you mount it before you boot the virtual machine, do you have vmware
player 4.0? you need 4.0. and you need to check the connected checkbox
and the connect at power on checkbox to make floppy work.

Ok, created the .flp image of the original hobbit game's files, but,
if I either try mount it to the already included floppy disk piece of
virtual hardware, or try create another one inside virtual machine, it
keeps telling me disk/drive not ready from command line when virtual
machine is running..?
Do you just reassign the already included floppy disk to use that
image file, do you tell it to connect at power up, or do you map it
into virtual machine another way?
TIA

into a floppy disk image file. I mounted it in the virtual machine
and it showed up as an a: drive then in dos with asap I typed
copy a:\island.exe c:\
