Giannis--
I had a similar problem and found the the solution on the Frankenlinux page
about fstab:
www.frankenlinux.com/intor/fstab.html
and used the suggested fstab setting listed there:
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto rw,noauto,users,nosuid,nodev,sync,noexec 0 0
I think the important entry is the "rw" in the Mount Options (field three)
list which means, of course, read/write.
The Frankenlinux site is a *very* well written, useful resource--I recommend
it. Not as much fun as this list, though ;-)
