Comment 4 for bug 231218

I come from duplicate bug #382114, and I have the same issue in my fully-updated Jaunty.

Steps to reproduce:

Binary package hint: gnome-mount

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to Places->Computer.
2. Right-click on any volume and select Properties (the volume must be previously mounted).
3. Click on Drive or Volume tabs.
4. Click on Settings to show the mount options.
5. Enter any wrong information in the "Mount point", "Filesystem" or "Mount options" fields. Try, for instance, entering "foo" (without the quotes) in "Mount options" field and enter "good" or reasonable values in the other two fields.
6. Unmount the volume and try to mount it again.

Result: An error dialog appears indicating that the volume couldn't be mounted (as expected, because you entered wrong mounting options on step #5). However, you can't fix the wrong options because you can't access to the Drive and Volume tabs until the volume has been mounted, and you can't mount the volume because the mount options are wrong. There's no way to fix the bad options entered on step #5.

The bug is fully reproducible and could lead to have an inaccessible volume without an easy way to repair the access to the volume.
