You must have a very unusual system where only root can
mount the floppy.  Try adding "user" as one of your mount
options in fstab.

Anyway you can access the floppy using two methods:

1. lredir: In dosemu, type "LREDIR A: LINUX\FS\MNT\FLOPPY"
Change "mnt\floppy" to where-ever your floppy is normally mounted in linux.

2. direct access: Look in your dosemu.conf and change a line (I believe it's
($_vbootfloppy))
but I'm currently in Windows (it's not my fault, this time :)) to whatever
the comment next
to it suggests ("threeinch" ???).

What is D7?

Hope that helps,
