Yes, I could now get it working for the gnome-terminal.

I have an fstab entry like:

/dev/fd0                floppy          msdos   dev,rw,noauto  0   0

But the problem is, nautilus cannot cope with that, and also the user 
can only mount it from there when he is at the top of his home 
directory.

So now I have a few ideas, where I do not know how to configure:

1) Can I let a user mount to a directory which he doesn't own?
2) How can I set up an fstab entry, which matches to every user?  
${HOME}/floppy and ~/floppy didn't work for me.

Thanks,
Martin
