Public bug reported:

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://www.ucc.asn.au/~mccabedj/ccache/Hardy-ccache.img.bz2
   (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.

I can mount the floppy
