The fact that mount hangs on no media is one of the "well known" Linux
issues - but we shouldn't be trying to mount floppies if there isn't one
in the drive.  Reassigning this from "mount" (which is innocent) to what
I think calls is

** Summary changed:

- does not terminate at computer shutdown
+ Attempts to mount floppy despite no media present

** Package changed: util-linux (Ubuntu) => nautilus (Ubuntu)
