AFAIK, you have to mount it by hand, though as I said it's been
a while since I've had to resort to using a floppy, so things
may have changed (though from the sounds of things, they haven't)

They're your per-process file-descriptors.
You should have a /dev/fd0
does lsmod | grep floppy show anything?
Dave
lsmod | grep floppy returns nothing. modprobe floppy returns:
FATAL: Error inserting floppy
(/lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/kernel/drivers/block/floppy.ko): No such
device
The kernel module is there and the floppy works fine under that OTHER OS.
