Much better!  Now I have something I can comment on...

If I run the same command line on my machine, it mounts OK.  It looks like
you perhaps have a problem with your floppy.  Try entering the mount command
like I did, and see if you get an error.  The automounter itself looks OK.
Here's the output from my machine:

shawn:/# mount | grep fd0
shawn:/# mount -t auto -s -o timout=5,umask=000 /dev/fd0 /mnt
shawn:/# mount | grep fd0
/dev/fd0 on /mnt type vfat (rw,timout=5,umask=000)
shawn:/# umount /mnt
shawn:/#

HTH,
Chris
