Eduardo, I've got LS120 drives on most of my systems, so have dealt
with most of the problems.  Mounting the drives for use is not a problem
at all.  Just add a line similar to the following:

/dev/hdd1       /mnt/floppy     auto    user,noauto     0 0

where you replace hdd1 with the apprpriate drive designation and
partition number.  Commonly, like zip disks, they seem to come with
partition 4 under MS Windows/whatever; I normally use fdisk to 
create partition 1, type 83 (Linux native), and then run mke2fs to
format the partition.

I've had no success as yet using the LS120 drives as a boot device.
