How do I mount an old dos floppy without making additions to fstab?
I assume there is a proper way to do this since an icon comes up on the desktop when I plug the disk in to the drive but it can't deal with the file system apparently and refuses to mount. I don't know the magic incantation for the command line.

I have a few disks I need to extract text [.doc] files from.

mount /dev/fd0 -t vfat /media   Works but it dumps all the files in /media.

So I created /media/floppy/  That works, is it the "usual/correct" way?
