Automount works well for mounting the floppy but doesn't help with unmounting fast enough for the type thing that Fred is likely talking about. What you need is a gui sitting on top of the mtools. I haven't needed this but there is a project at Freshmeat name MToolsFM that looks like it might be something to look at. However, just a word of warning it is GTK+ not KDE based.

Is there any way to access a floppy with Konq., take the floppy out, put in another, and have it see the "new" floppy without unmounting and remounting? For someone who HAS to view a lot of floppies, as a client of mine does, it's a real pain in the butt!!! "DeadRat" seems to have solved this problem in their last release, but I don't know what the setup is.
You might try automount (man automount).
There is also kwikdisk, click mount, umount. Included with 8.1, 8.2 and 9.0 (kdeutils3-3.1.4-24.rpm). -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org
