Good point,



I have 
/dev/fd0  /floppy  vfat  defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022  0  0

So I guess
/dev/sda  /floppy  vfat  defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022  0  0 


Would  be the right thing, and in fact it works!

The only thing which remains to be done is to configure  the KDE floppy
symbol to mount correctly the device. I will try this.

Thanks
