It's not showing up under "/media" ? If it's a FAT32 floppy, you should be able to access it with the various tools in the "mtools" package, which are much, much, much faster than read/write operations on a mounted floppy. If none of those are working, come back we can talk to you about adding user authorization for /etc/fstab mountpoints, or even using autofs.
