Who mounts the floppy? Is it mounted by root or by you? Check /etc/fstab, look at the options column. man mount to find out what each of those means. You want to use the option users instead of user or owner. The default (if options is set to defaults) is nouser.
You should also make sure that the fs isn't mounted read-only (using the ro option (default is read-write)), and that the floppy isn't write protected (by slipping the write-protect tab on the floppy casing).
