On the making of shortcuts

[Peter Lundqvist <peterl update uu se>]

Hi

I've been toying with jhbuilds gnome26-module recently. Nautilus is all
pretty and neat. I actually find myself using the spatial mode even though
I'd thought it would suck.

Anyway, I tried to find a way to make a shortcut on the desktop that
points to a certain location in my local filesystem - namely '/data'.

'/data' is a mountpoint.
The make shortcut option in the menu is grayed out and I can't find a way
to create a shortcut to it.

Then I figured I can probably do this by just rightclicking on the desktop
and use something like 'create shortcut' - I have a lot of stupid thoughts
;-)

Any clue as to why this does not work?
