You can write the file direct to the floppy device /dev/fd0 as if it
was a tape. No need to mount any sort of filesystem. Since you have
cpio(1) available use:
# cd /usr/libexec
# echo ./ld-elf.so.1 | cpio -o > /dev/fd0
Then to extract the file:
# cd /usr/libexec
# cpio -i < /dev/fd0
Cheers,
Matthew
