i don't use 8.1, so if it's a 8.1 specific problem...

on my box:

/etc/fstab
/dev/fd0  /mnt/floppy  vfat snc,nosuid,noauto,user,nodev,unhide 0 0

to mount a vfat floppy:
mount /mnt/floppy
---> /etc/mtab
gives the same line that /etc/fstab
or this other way:
su -c 'mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy'
+ pwd and without specifying any fs type
---> /etc/mtab
/dev/fd0  /mnt/floppy  vfat  rw  0 0

to mount a ext2 floppy
su -c 'mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy'
---> /etc/mtab
/dev/fd0  /mnt/floppy  ext2  rw 0 0

bye
