Well, type auto _should_ do it, but I've also discovered that it
doesn't work.  One easy way to use multiple types of disks then is to
put multiple lines for /dev/fd0 in your /etc/fstab:
 /dev/fd0        /floppy/msdos         msdos           user,rw 0       0
 /dev/fd0        /floppy/ext2         ext2           user,rw 0       0
 /dev/fd0        /floppy/vfat         vfat           user,rw 0       0

And then create the directories "msdos", "ext2", and "vfat" underneath 
/floppy.  (You might leave the old line in there too, so that users
expecting "mount /floppy" to work wouldn't get confused - there's
nothing harmful about mounting to a non-empty directory)
