Loyal,
Haven't had much time to experiment....sick spouse.  There are things in
the dev directory.  I got mixed up when composing my email.  Someone gave
me the exact command line syntax for the mount command.....I had completely
forgotten that.  The floppy is on my laptop.   I am getting a usb floppy
for just this sort of thing.  Thanks for all the help.   Will find out how
linux treats usb floppies.
Jim
