Another set of programs which I have used is mntdisk. This was posted in
comp.sources.unix volume 22, and is available from many ftp sites. It includes
support for diskettes UNIX and PC formats (at least on Suns), CD's and
Erasable Optical Disks. It attempts to make sure that you do not mount
diskettes with device files and mounts with the nosuid option to prevent
misuse of diskettes.

As shipped it lets you mount the diskette wherever you like. However, it
is easy to modify to only allow mounts on specific directories if this is
necessary.
