Summary: mountmgr only assign drive letters for up to two removable devices Product: Wine Version: 1.1.8 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: regression Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: thestig@google.com
It used to be the case that if hal reports a device as a floppy, it gets assigned to a: or b:, otherwise, the device gets assigned a drive letter between c and z.
With the changes in mountmgr just before Wine 1.1.7, all removable devices that are not cdroms are limited to a: or b:, which means if I hot-plug 3 usb thumb drives, the third one does not get a drive letter.

--- Comment #1 from dimesio@earthlink.net 2008-11-09 08:27:06 --- Another consequence of this behavior is that when a thumb drive is mapped to A:, winecfg sets the drive type as "floppy disk." So far the apps I regularly use do not seem to have problem with my 2 gig "floppy disk," but I can imagine there might be some Windows apps (esp. older ones) that rely on the media in A: being standard floppy capacity.
(Not sure if this should be a separate bug--seems like the same underlying problem to me.)
