I ididn't know that mount wouldn't put your /dev/fd0 wherever you told it
to; I'd never tried to ount the floppy anywhere except /mnt/floppy.
Try your mount command w/ /mnt/floppy as the target directory; your files
are going there anyway, so it should work...
THEN, when you're done cp-ing, run your command THIS WAY(!!!!)
umount /dev/fd0
BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT UNMOUNTING THE TARGET DIRECTORY, YOU'RE
UNMOUNTING THE DEVICE THAT IS MOUNTED ON THAT DIRECTORY
(Emphasis not for you, for others)
