+The floppy ioslave gives you easy access to the floppy disk drives 
+installed on your system.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The drive letter becomes the first subdirectory 
+in the floppy &URL;. Let's say there is a file <filename>logo.png</filename> on your floppy 
+disk in drive A, then the &URL; will be <userinput><command>floppy:</command><replaceable>/a/logo.png</replaceable></userinput>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If you want to access drive B, <userinput><command>floppy:/b</command></userinput> will do it.
+<command>floppy:/</command> is a shortcut for <command>floppy:/a</command>.
+</para>
+
+<note><para>Note that <command>floppy:/logo.png</command> means you have a disk drive 
+named <filename>logo.png</filename>.</para></note>
+
+<para>
+To use it you need to have the mtools package
+installed, and the floppy ioslave supports everything the various mtools 
+command line utilities support. You don't have to mount your floppy disks, 
+simply enter <userinput>floppy:/</userinput> in any &kde; 3.x app and you will be able to 
+read from and write to your floppy drive.</para>
+
+<para>
+It also works with USB sticks, ZIP and JAZ drives.
+You can use <command>floppy:/u</command> for the USB stick and <command>floppy:/z</command> for the zip drive, for example.
+To make this work, you might need to adjust your <filename>/etc/mtools</filename> file. See the manpage
+for documentation.
+</para>
+
+<para>The ioslave gives read and write access to the floppy drive, but not 
+simultaneously. While you can read and write to the floppy during the same 
+session, reading and writing have to happen one after the other, not at the same 
+time.</para>
