Have you tried right clicking on the icons?
I have an icon for the floppy and cdrom showing on the desktop after installing Knoppix to my hard drive. When I click on the cdrom I get "file:/mnt/cdrom does not exit and a similar message when I click on the floppy icon I get a similar message. My dual boot installation is on a IBM laptop. The floppy device is USB and the cdrom is actually a dvd/cdrom. What do I need to do to access these? Where can I find real basic "need to know" intructions for beginners like how to mount devices etc?

OK, the error messages were right! The mountpoints for your cdrom and floppy are incorrect.
You need to make new icons (really, they're links).
Right click on the Kde desktop. Create New > CD/DVDROM device. In the "device" tab put
/dev/cdrom
and everything should be fine. Similar for the floppy. Then (once you've got them working) you can right click on the old ones and select delete.
To mount, right click and select mount.
yes that fixed that problem.
