Re: fstab: how to mount a floppy as an unprivileged user

Thanks again to everyone who helped.

@JEO: You just saved me an awful lot of headaches. I think you're right that I can't mount the USB floppy via fstab, for the reasons you give. Thanks a lot.

Guess I'll just have to catalog my old floppies as root. :-)
