Floppy disk icon

It doesn't work (neither does the cdrom icon).
So I try to open it from the command line. Shouldn't one of these commands
have worked?
HOw can I open the floppy icon and make it so it works?
knoppix@bmike1:~$ mount fd0
mount: can't find fd0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
knoppix@bmike1:~$ mount /mnt/floppy
mount: mount point /mnt/floppy is a symbolic link to nowhere
knoppix@bmike1:~$ mount /mnt/fd0
mount: can't find /mnt/fd0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
knoppix@bmike1:~$ mount /dev/fd0
mount: mount point /mnt/floppy is a symbolic link to nowhere
knoppix@bmike1:~$
