Yesterday I stuck a floppy into the 3.5" floppy drive; HAL recognized it and mounted it just fine. I even got a pretty icon of a floppy disk on my desktop.
When it was time to take the floppy disk out, I right-clicked on the floppy disk icon, selected "Unmount volume", and the icon dissapeared. No entries under /media/ for the floppy disk any more. I promptly pressed the eject button on the floppy drive, and took the floppy disk out. All hunky-dory. Or is it? A few minutes later, I needed to mount the floppy disk in the volume again. OK, no problem, we'll just run that there `volcheck -v` thingy like we always used to, and that should do the trick... Em, nope, thank you. `volcheck` didn't check the floppy drive. The LED didn't light up. No entries were made under /media. At that point I realized, I've no idea how to remount any volume, not just a floppy, with the new HAL mounter. This happened to me before with USB drives, but I shrugged it off as a bug with either HAL or scsa2usb driver. Apparently not. So how do I mount a removable media again, after "unmounting" it?
