Oh man, don't do this.  That's just terrible.  It may seem easier, but it
takes just as much effort as adding an /etc/fstab entry like this:

/dev/fd0                /mnt/floppy             msdos   noauto,user     0 0

Then typing:

# mount /mnt/floppy

and you won't be embarrased by others when you go to another system, and don't
remember how to mount a DOS floppy.
