I personally do the following:

1) Create a floppy mount directory (I use /floppy with a 755 chmod)
2) Edit /etc/fstab and add the following line:

    #Device        Mountpoint    FStype    Options        Dump    Pass#
    /dev/fd0c        /floppy    msdos        rw,noauto    0        0

3) Using the root account, I just mount the floppy:

    ns# mount /floppy

This of assumes you have the MSDOS file system support in your kernel.
Hope this helps.
