Then at the command prompt type "userdrake" all without the quotes. A small gui will come up and you will see your user(s) . Highlight your user with a click of the mouse and then click on edit. At this point you will see a new box, click on the group tab and then add floppy and probably cdrom cdrwriter users and any others you want, don't add root. This is done one at a time by highlighting the group with a mouse click and then clicking on the <- arrow to put it on the left side. when done selecting click save and you will have access to floppy and others we hope.
