I'll try this out... how does one copy a file from a 1.722M floppy to the HD?
I only have the WKS.tgz file on a 1722 floppy and on my main PC desktop
computer (i.e., not the one running muLinux), and splitting the huge files
onto 2 1.44M floppies is a pain if I have to do it for all addons...

I tried mounting those floppies using /dev/fd0H1722 but it complains that it
can't find a valid MSDOS filesystem (I'm using "auto" type in /etc/fstab, and
have tried "fat"/"vfat")
