Alan,
Changed the /etc/fstab to read what you suggested. Still no go!
Error message now says: "mount: can't find /dev/fd0 in /etc/fstab or
/etc/mtab".

Tried changing the first /mnt/floppy to /dev/fd0. 
Error message: "mount: fs type supermount not supported by kernel".

Also tried changing the third field to "auto" and "msdos", got the old
error message.

The old /etc/fstab entry (the one in the first message) is what came off
the install disk with the exception of "ext2" was "auto" and "rw" wasn't
there.

Any other ideals?
