Hi Colin,

I've tested this now, and it looks like I was wrong. Thunar didn't
automount my floppy. However, you can easily mount it by hand like this:
$ mount /media/floppy0

it will then be available in /media/floppy, where you can drag stuff
on/from it, just like with normal folders.

I think what Colin meant is that this is not easy as is with removable usb devices
as floppies do not get automounted. AFAIK HAL does not handle floppies but I may be wrong
as I heard reports that say it should.
