For new potato installations, the default /etc/fstab will have the
following:

/dev/fd0      /floppy   auto     defaults,user,noauto     0 0
/dev/cdrom    /cdrom    iso9660  defaults,ro,user,noauto  0 0

/dev/cdrom is a symlink created by the boot-floppies if the user
installs from a CD-ROM.

I'll probably change that a little to support SCSI floppies (common on
sparcs).
