Um, cp?
Won't that blow away your device node and make a file named /dev/fd0
containing the data in network.img?
If anything, I'd think youd need "cat network.img > /dev/fd0" or "dd
if=network.img of=/dev/fd0"
Or am I wrong?

I'll be glad to try Mandrake 9.0 but I need the instructions as to how
to download the floppy from the source either the Luau Mirror or the
MAndrake site. Where do I find the floppy image to download?
Download the appropriate image (network.img if you want to install
off network, cdrom.img if you want to install from cdrom) and then
type from a shell:
cp network.img /dev/fd0
(or
cp cdrom.img /dev/fd0
)
The images can be found here I think:
ftp://videl.ics.hawaii.edu/mirrors/mandrake/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/images/
