Try changing user to users. This is what I have in fstab:
/dev/fd0 /floppy vfat defaults,users,noauto,showexec,umask=022 0 0
Your user should also be in the floppy group, check with groups and if needed: sudo adduser username floppy
i have to allow uer to mount floppy
mount point is /mnt/test
i have tried there lines to fstab to no avail get
/dev/fd0 /mnt/test msdos noauto,user,exec 0 0
or
/dev/fdo /flopp msdos user,noauto 0 0
only root can do that
when i enter mount /dev/fdo /mnt/test
any help apprciate
cthugling not helpful--i think i ented 5 different fstab lines i read on this point
something is really wrong either my concepts or my typing!
