Just to make sure I'd run the mount command properly I made a second go at it using
linux:~ # mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy
You have a tendency to always choose the wrong way. Why don't you just click on the Floppy Device icon as someone has already suggested? Then use Konqueror to copy (via drag and drop) the files but don't forget to rename them first according to the 8+3 MS-DOS convention. Then close the floppy window and unmount the floppy via the floppy icon. You may experiment with mounting, copying to /dev/something, ... as root but keep in mind you risk a serious damage to your OS installation in this case. -- A.M.
