Carlos since I was having a simular problem I made the changes you suggested to fstab: /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,users 0 0 and also changed the group on floppy to users instead of root and changed the permissions to 755 (as root). I then rebooted and the group and permissions are changed back to:
...
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,fs=floppyfss,procuid 0 0 If I right click on the desktop floppy icon it says the floppy is unmounted.
But of course: you neglected to read that email and apply the changes to 'hal' mentioned there. After you change that, you can edit fstab and use manual mount only.
Do I need to remove the floppy statement from mtab?
That file is dynamic, it is useless to edit it; it reflects reality. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEMrBItTMYHG2NR9URAttKAJ0bVAzwyszBZmFvOKzXAlKYDOQllACfRxjz ARytRbgGN8uVlzAd0Vhp874= =gpYQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
