You probably already have: /dev/fd0 /floppy auto user,noauto 0 0
Change it to/add: /dev/sda /floppy auto user,noauto 0 0
   

Good point,



I have 
/dev/fd0  /floppy  vfat  defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022  0  0

So I guess
/dev/sda  /floppy  vfat  defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022  0  0 

Would  be the right thing, and in fact it works!

The only thing which remains to be done is to configure  the KDE floppy
symbol to mount correctly the device. I will try this.
Thanks



 

It's great that the KDE community is addressing ms* floppies, but, 
remember mtools (i.e. mcopy and mdir and
mdel) allows one to iteract with ms* floppies without mounting....
