After that you can put a filesystem on it if you like mkfs -t <msdos or ext2> /dev/fd0 Configuration=>Boot and Init=>DrakFloppy makes a boot disk which is formatted and then filled with a boot image, and it can be erased and re-used easily. But... there is a bug in Konqueror trhat will freeze things when dragging files to floppy, so use any other graphical file management tool like nautilus or gmc or similar to perform that or use the command line cp.
