you need to add the following line to /etc/fstab
/dev/fd0 /floppy msdos rw,noauto 0 0
then make the directory
/floppy

For more info see: man fstab

jup, found it already
the floppy itself was broken
the synthax that must be added is correct, you're right.
and to make things more easy i can mount cdrom and floppy at same time.

thnx man
