After playing with supermount, mount and mformat, it appears the floppy is
mounted by root (even if the user is the first to access it), this means at user
space using mformat need to before umounting the floppy using root.
Mformat will not be setuit root for that. It appears to be a limitation of
supermount.

description:
The GNOME floppy formatter only works when /mnt/floppy is manually umounted
first. There is nothing to indicate to the user what the problem is when he
tries to format a floppy and it gives a weird error message.
Suggestion: start the floppy formatter with a script that umounts the floppy
(needs suid=root??) first and remounts afterwards.
