not according to your fstab you aren't, it is set up to autodetect ext2/dos 
formatted animals

this animal is under the default control of kudzu, a startup binary that 
checks to see what is  / isn't there. If your zip is powered off or otherwise 
disconnected at time of booting, then this entry will be removed from fstab

to fix that, remove "kudzu" from the entry.

you need to set those yoursefl, by hand
along the lines of

/dev/hda1 /mnt/dos vfat    auto,defaults,users,rw,umask=0,mode=777   0 0

you're not explaining what you can't do

do you want it to auto load? if so alter the settings in Autostart folder on 
your kde desktop. 

do you simply want to mount it via an icon click?

if so, changing anything in fstab immediately causes corresponding icons to 
appear / dissapear on the desktop.
