mek,
This is done by editing the /etc/fstab file as root.
For the CDROM
It will read /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
edit this to read
/dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user 00
The floppy will read
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy ext2 defaults,noauto 0 0
change this to read
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto user,defaults,noauto 0 0
when you save this edit. And exit the editor.
Right click mouse and choose rescan desktop. The icons will then be on
the desktop for use.
