Floppy Drive Privileges Set For Root

I just installed this floppy drive in my computer and I can view files on floppy disks but I can not add files to a disk, formating will not work.

All the privileges and ownership are set as root and I can not change them. (But I physically own it)

Here is what the privileges are set for:

Add this line to your /etc/fstab file

Code:

---

/dev/fd0        /media/floppy0  auto    rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0      0

---

and then reboot and see if that works.

also check the driver is loaded

Code:

---

lsmod

---

and see if floppy is in the list.

Good Luck
