Can anyone help us here? I want to be able to write to a floppy disk as a user. Using the floppy icon under ~/my computer results in: cannot enter folder /media/floppy
Check to make sure that your /etc/fstab file entry for the floppy drive looks like this: /dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0 In particular, the procuid option will ensure that when you enter the /media/floppy directory, the filesystem on the floppy gets mounted with your ownership permissions. If you make a change to this entry in /etc/fstab, you need to unmount and remount it once as root in order for the change to take effect: root$ umount /media/floppy root$ mount /media/floppy -Ti
