My wife accidentally dragged the floppy disk icon into
her home directory, and now it has vanished.  She power
cycled it, but it no longer mounts the floppy when it
is inserted.  The machine is at home and I'm not, so
I can't tell if it is a serious problem, but does anyone
know what needs to be done, or if we really are in
trouble here?
