01. Create a mount point – A place to load the data structure of the storage device (One time only)
[root@server ~]# mkdir /media/floppy

02. See a mount point
[root@server ~]# ls -l /media

03. Verify the device driver assigned to your Floppy Disk Driver
[root@server ~]# ls -l /dev/fl*
eg - /dev/fd0 , /dev/fd1

04. Mounting the Floppy
[root@server ~]# mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy

05. See the floppy drive data
[root@server ~]# cd /media/floppy
[root@server ~]# ls –l

[root@server ~]# umount /dev/fd0
