If you have the 2.4.x kernel (I'm not sure x>what, but I use the lastest one, 7.) there is support for Mass Storage Devices under USB. You need to have scsi emulation, and scsi disk support for it. But you might already know this.
I just mount it under /floppy. Here is my fstab line: /dev/sda /floppy hfs defaults,user,noauto,nosuid,noexec,nodev 0 0 I use hfs, since I use it to move big files from my Mac side to my Linux side. (I run a mac). hfsplus's hpcopy tends to puke on big files... Anyways, good luck.
