user mountable filesystem

I have a thumb drive in the USB port. I want to be able to mount it without 
being root, as I can do on my Linux box. So I put this line in /etc/fstab:

/dev/da8s1		/mnt/thumb	msdos	rw,noauto,user	0	0

I get this error when I try to mount it:

-bash-3.2$ mount /mnt/thumb/
msdos: -o user: option not supported

Without "user" I get this:

mount /mnt/thumb/
msdos: /dev/da8s1: Operation not permitted

How can I do this?
