You need to mount the floppy, this is easy to do.

1> Make sure you NOT in the /floppy directory
2) Put the disk in the drive.
3) type "mount /floppy"

Your floppy should now be mounted, cd to /floppy and it will now 
show the contents of your disk, don't forget to unount the floppy
when your done, this is easy too.

1) Make sure your not in /floppy
2) type "umount /floppy"
          ^
      not a typo there is no only one n

Cheers
