Have you mounted your floppy yet? Stick the floppy in the drive,
click on the nice little floppy icon on your desktop, and it'll mount
for you, providing you have set it to allow non-root mounting of
floppies. :-)
Next, just copy stuff the way you normally do (I use a console and
the "cp" command) except your target will be /mnt/floppy (I think
this is the default) instead of some other directory, etc.
That's all there is to it. Remember to UNMOUNT the floppy when you
get done with it, BEFORE you remove the floppy.
