Sometimes USB FDD wasn't recognized in debian lenny rc1 gnome
but it could be mounted with console mount command
Symptom:
1) $ lshal -m storage_serial_SAMSUNG_SFD_321U__FW_0C_

2) nautilus message
(even though floppy disk is inserted.)
Unable to mount media.
There is probably no media in the drive.
my temporary solution:
because my USB FDD is /dev/sdb
insert:
KERNEL=="sd[a-z]", ATTRS{removable}=="1", \
GOTO="persistent_storage_end"
below "# skip removable ide devices, because open(2) on them causes an
events loop"
in /etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules file
and
# /etc/init.d/udev restart
in root terminal
