Using Flash (Thumb) Drive via Floppy Boot Disk

Hi,

Has anyone used a flash drive ("thumb" drive) after booting a computer
using a floppy boot disk (A: drive)?

Note: Windows is not launched. I want to transfer "stuff" from C: drive
to the flash drive.

Thanks in advance, Brad

Before you type your password, credit card number, etc.,
be sure there is no active keystroke logger (spyware) in your PC.

You're talking about a DOS OS, and I don't think they make drivers for flash
drives to support DOS. Thus, you would need to find a different operating
system that can boot from a CD and support flash drives. (I don't think
anyone has a floppy-based system that supports flash drives, but I may be
wrong.) Off the top of my head (which doesn't remember much these days), I
know of one such OS:
