Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
Steps to reproduce
Boot Hardy LiveCD in VirtualBox 1.5.4 or 1.5.6
In the VBox menu mount a dos floppy image, e.g.
http://
(decompress first ;)
Go to Places->Computer
Double click Floppy Drive.
Nothing happens. I'd expect the floppy to be mounted.
Workaround:
sudo mkdir /media/floppy
sudo mount /dev/fd0 -t auto /media/floppy
A "Floppy" icon will now appear in the Computer folder. The "Floppy Drive" icon will remain, and will be still be useless.
