The floppy can be mounted with

mount /dev/fd0

as fstab contains

/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

If the floppy is not mounted, clicking "Places | Floppy Drive" causes the activity light on the floppy to flash, but nothing else.

Palimpsest gives the message "No Media Detected" whether the floppy is mounted or unmounted.
