Add the 'user' option in the fstab line :)

You need to put "user" literally. I'm not sure what the noowner option does...

I have never used supermount - don't use the floppy often enough to bother with it. Don't know what the noowner option is. In the "normal" fstab not supermount there is an option to allow all users to mount the floppy.
something like this(not in linux at mo to check):
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy/ auto defaults,user 0 0
