I solved the problem with my floppy drives by specifying different mount
points
in the /etc/fstab as follows for the first floppy drive:

/dev/fd0        /floppy      ext2     rw,noauto,user    0       0
/dev/fd0        /a:          msdos    rw,noauto,user    0       0

This way I am able to mount a msdos or an ext2 floppy with a simple

mount /floppy for ext2
or
mount /a: for a msdos floppy

Have a Great Day :-)
