'man gpg'

You would've found the option '--homedir'

--homedir directory
Set the name of the home directory to directory
If this option is not used it defaults to
"~/.gnupg". It does not make sense to use this
in a options file. This also overrides the envi-
ronment variable "GNUPGHOME".

Set the environment variable and make sure you have the floppy mounted.

As an aside to this I thought I'd mention that when I did "man gpg" I
got......

"No man page due to missing docbook-to-man"

So, maybe it's missing ? Downloaded from.....

Thanks :-)
