How do I copy a driver file(rpm) in a floppy to /etc/src/ ?

If you're just doing a simple copy, do the following:
Insert the floppy and mount it. Assuming that the mount point for your floppy is /mnt/floppy (you can verify this by look at the /dev/fd0 line in your /etc/fstab file), type: mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy. If its a DOS floppy, type: mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy.

Next, just issue a basic copy command:
cp /mnt/floppy/filename /etc/src/filename, where "filename" is the name of your file.
