In order to copy a raw file image to the floppy.

Not really. See above. The intent is not to leave the floppy permanently
mounted; I only needed to copy a raw diskette image to the floppy (a
boot floppy for FreeBSD, as it happens). As it happens, I found a way to
do it under Windows, so the problem is solved.
