Had the directory, but tried the mount from the console with your parameters and it worked. The fstab entry I copied from my laptop is /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,usr,sync 0 0=20 which does not work. What should this be then if it works with your mount command from the console?

Make sure you have a directory, (/media/floppy is where SuSE 7.3 puts it). Insert a readable floppy. Then as root: mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /media/floppy If this works, then there is a problem with your fstab entry which can be easily corrected.
If it does not work, the error message should possibly point you to the problem.

When I click the floppy icon on the desktop, I get an error that
