edit /etc/fstab
/dev/fd0 /floppy vfat noauto,user 0 0
The above means mount /dev/fd0 (drive A:) into the directory /floppy assign
the vfat filesystem type, do not mount it at boot time, allow users to
mount.
With the above one would issue commands like;
mount /floppy
mount /dev/fd0
As far as i know the program /bin/mount is installed with permissions for
users in all distro's. I imagen thats why its in /bin and not /sbin.
man mount has examples for all filesystems.
man fstab explains the rest.
