Believe it or not, but I still have a floppy disk drive in my workstation, and I have to use it occasionally! I just noticed that my user was not allowed to write to /dev/fd0 even though it belongs to the group "floppy". I found that /dev/fd0 belongs to the group "disk", and I don't think it should. Granting a user the ability to write to floppies is not nearly as dangerous as allowing it to write to everything in the "disk" group.
Have a look at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765426 there is a udev rule setting the group to floppy. best regards Ulf
