[Bug 811108] Re: mount problem with floppy drive

 

Werner Holtfreter, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

release

** Description changed:

- This is a re-report from https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554700 which
- has marked as "Won't Fix" because the version is too old now.
+ It is impossible to mount floppy disks via:
+ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/
  
- It is impossible to mount with:
- 
-      sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/
- 
- But this works:
- 
-      sudo mount /dev/fd0u1440 /mnt/
- 
- Consequently,  it is impossible to mount the floppy with Nautilus.
+ WORKAROUND: One may mount via below command, but not with Nautilus:
+ sudo mount /dev/fd0u1440 /mnt/
