If, for whatever reason, console access is not appropriate for you and you need to give non-root users access to your system’s diskette drive, you can do so with the floppy group. Simply add the user(s) to the floppy group using the tool of your choice. Here is an example showing how gpasswd can be used to add user fred to the floppy group:
[root@bigdog root]# gpasswd -a fred floppy Adding user fred to group floppy [root@bigdog root]#
Now user fred will now be able to access the system’s diskette drive from the console.
