Using a floppy boot disk, I would mount /dev/hda1 on /mnt/c and copy it
like that. However, since I've never had a mounting problem before this
wasn't an issue until now. =(
If I can copy it to a FAT-formatted floppy, I could copy it that way,

Compared to Linux, Windows does suck in some respects, however in many
respects Linux has a long way to go to catch windows. The fact that you
think windows sucks doesn't mean you won't be using it. People have always
know that Windows sucks, but yet it is the most popular OS in the world by
far
Just for your information:
If you are dual-booting Win NT and linux you don't have any of these
problems. If you have to upgrade windows it is not a problem, the MBR
doesn't get overwritten as long as you don't change any of the partitioning.
