You do it the same way as a cdrom, only difference is that you have to put
aside a day instead of an hour, and have a good stiff drink near bye for
when you find your 6th bad floppy and your about to go on a rampage. After
the above scenario happens a few times you will quickly be very drunk,
suddenly understanding why you had to put aside a day.

Trust me, Ive been there
