Thanks for the info on the mcopy commands. It took a little doing, but I did
manage to mount the floppy, and CDROM too, and was able to do a cp to get
what I needed transfered.

You have two choices about text files on floppies:
1.) Copy them into a directory on your hard drive using mcopy. Do
mcopy to learn about mtools commands.
2.) Mount the floppy and read them directly. This would be a command
something like:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
PS: You should probably also learn about unix2dos and dos2unix. Again, the
man page for these commands will help.
