I figured this out - want to know how? Send me a dollar! :p

okay, I'm not super educated on HAL, or udev, so I'm not sure where this permission/group stuff is configured. But apparently hal needs the user attempting to mount the floppy to belong to group disk. Once I added my user to disk I was able to mount floppies.

gpasswd -a [username] disk, log out/in and should be good to go.

At least this worked from my removable floppy.
