@Martin Pitt and anyone interested

natty beta1 with latest updates as of this writing installed. results below

~$ sudo mformat -f 1440 A:
[sudo] password for peter:
~$ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0
~$ cd /media/floppy0
:/media/floppy0$ ls -l
total 0

then
****** under nautilus GUI file copied *****

:/media/floppy0$ ls -l
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1820 2010-05-01 22:22 grub2-floppy-setup.txt
:/media/floppy0$

self explanatory. however, umount questionable - see below

:/media/floppy0$ sudo umount /media/floppy0
[sudo] password for peter:
umount: /media/floppy0: not mounted

hopefully on natty release

- an icon will show up on the desktop after /dev/fd0 mounted and,
- nautilus will be fine tuned so that floppy0 right click at least shows UNMount after /dev/fd0 WAS mounted under CLI as well as have umount functional under CLI..

so far good show devs !
