Patrick....type dmesg in a console window and then look for a line in
the output like the one below:
hda: LS-120 CSMO 05 UHD Floppy, ATAPI FLOPPY drive
My LS-120, in the above, is identified as hda (that's because it's the
master device on the primary IDE controller). Yours may be something
different, but it's not likely to be fd0 since an LS-120 is not normally
connected to the floppy controller. Anyway use this info to reconfigure
your fstab file and your mount command line. Accomplishing that should
get your LS-120 working.
