Visit Google (http://www.google.com) and perform a web search using the
keywords

    linux mount floppy

You will find many web sites that provide useful information on this
subject. If you still cannot mount a floppy disk after reading the
information on the various Linux HOWTO web sites, post a reply message
to this newsgroup / message thread, and in that reply message provide
the *exact* steps you are taking to mount the floppy - e.g., copy and
paste the *exact* command(s) you are typing at the shell prompt, copy
and paste the *exact* contents of your '/etc/fstab' configuration file, etc.
