This my /etc/fstab file :
...................
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
...................

With this setting, when I want to mount with right click, disk---> floppy ( Yes, I use Gnome desktop ), I got this error:

mount: only root can mount /dev/fd0 on /mnt/floppy

Unfortunatelly when I search this forum, nothing give me hint about accessing floppy as normal user not with command line. Yeah, you can search and find a lot about accessing cdrom as normal user not with command line. So... any idea, guyz?

This is my /etc/group file :
..........................
wheel::10:root
floppy::11:root,knight
mail::12:mail
...........................

knight is my user id.

Thank you.

Try changing owner to user. See if that works

Nautilus cann't determine what filesystem.... bla bla bla..

So I changed auto to vfat. That works. However I wonder if sometimes I want to use ext2 floppy, it is annoying if I have to changed my /etc/fstab file or do it in command line. So any idea?

Btw, thx.

On my machine had the same problem, just added users and rw in my ftstab like this:
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,users,rw,umask=00 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,users,rw,umask=00 0 0

then any regular user can mount/umount the floppy.
wothout the rw option it does not work
