Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
I created a Live USB with "USB Startup disk creator", booted from it, and when I try to access the USB flash drive (the Live USB) I get an error:
Unable to mount location: can't mount file
The only work-around is to go to this location:
/cdrom
and now I can access the files on the Flash drive (but only in read-only mode)
Note 1 : This is not a problem nor on Thunar nor on dolphin (but the files are also read-only in both)
Note 2: Using cd2usb (windows tool) to create the Live USB produces the same result
Note 3: Using root mode allows to write to the USB drive (on all file-managers)
Notes 4: The USB drive does not appear on:
/media
