Yes.  The more correct solution is make sure that the vfat, fat and msdos
(since floppies are actually msdos, not vfat) modules are loaded into your
kernel on boot (this can be done by adding them as lines into /etc/modules).
Thing is, if the kernel has no support for a FS, the auto option is pretty
well useless.
