Trying to access msdos in debian 2.1

["Bryan K. Walton" <walton@berbee.com>]

Hi everybody,
	I am trying to install Precision Insight's NeoMagic X Server so
that I can get my IBM Thinkpad 390E up and running with X Windows.  At
this point in time, I do not have internet access on this laptop.  On
another computer (Win98), I downloaded the x server onto a floppy with a
msdos filesystem.  Then, I inserted the floppy into my Thinkpad and
attempted to mount the floppy by typing:

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

I then got a message saying that the kernal in Slink does not support the
MSDOS filesystem.  I also tried saying it was an ext2 filesystem just to
see if it would work (and it didn't).  How can I get this file copied off
of my floppy to my /var/tmp directory?

Thanks,
Bryan Walton
