Well in GNOME once accessed, the floppy never gets unmounted.  I
followed your script and those are the results i got, it's possible I
have something configured wrong.  I played with autofs sometime ago and
this seemed to always be a problem with desktop environments.

Mandrake has done this for years but it doesn't get included in the
kernel, probably because the supermount code is no good, I don't know.

Thanks for your support, however, I don't have the kernel coding skills
to do this, wish I did.
