HI Jayel;
/dev/mcd /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
/dev/fd0 /adisk msdos rw,noauto,user 0 0
Look in your fstab file, it's in /etc. Your floppy and cdrom should look
about like this. Make sure that it has "user" in it. This will allow you
to mount it. Then as a "user" you can say for example "mount /fd0" to
mount your floppy. If this does not work send me a copy of your fstab file
and we'll work on it.
Hope this helps!
