I just tried (for the 1st time) to read a floppy. I got an error dialog:
Unable to enter file:/mnt/floppy (or /zip). You do not have access rights to
this location.
That was when I clicked the desktop icon and also tried to view it via the
file manager.
I also tried as root from the terminal (ls /mnt/floppy) and got Input/output
error returned.

ls -l /mnt
