replace the mount point you give by the device file and it will work.

i.e. $ cat /dev/fd0 > winBootDisk.img

If you let create/move/copy/delete to normal user then you mount it with $ sudo mkdir /media/floppy1/ $ sudo mount -o loop,umask=0 /path/imagefile.img /media/floppy1/ I don't know if it depends on linux distro (i use upensuse) Thanks for suggestions If you mount image file with following option

$ sudo mkdir /media/floppy1/
$ sudo mount -o loop /path/imagefile.img /media/floppy1/

normal user can’t create/move/copy/delete files on it.

If you let create/move/copy/delete to normal user then you mount it with

$ sudo mkdir /media/floppy1/
