Description of problem:
If you click on a mounted floppy's icon and choose "format", gfloppy
is unable to format to format the floppy. You have to unmount the
floppy and, then, launch gfloppy to have it work. So I think gfloppy
should simply unmount the floppy before trying to format it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Mount a floppy
2.Right-click on its icon
3.Choose "format"
4.Try to format it

Actual Results:  It doesn't work

Expected Results:  It should work

Additional info:

If you unmount the floppy before trying to format it, it works.
