Simple. Add `user' to the options of the floppy, cdrom, and zip entries in /etc/fstab and every user will be able to mount / umount these file systems. BTW, mount already _is_ suid just to be able to do this. Being suid, it still refuses to mount / umount file systems which don't have the `user' option in /etc/fstab. > On another topic has anyone ever gotten a NDC NE100TX-E fast ethernet > adapter to work?
