unknown volume appeared on xfce desktop

ubuntu 20.10.

this: https://pasteboard.co/JTbIr4f.png . when a volume is unmounted, list of volumes appear and there is no such volume: https://pasteboard.co/JTbIEgw.png . and just now when i uploaded images i have seen a strange "efi" mounted volume in firefox's open dialog: https://pasteboard.co/JTbJz2U.png .

similar thing was reported on ubuntu forums: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2414983 , https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2415085 . npkala888's solution has worked for me, ie i checked "show hidden icons" and the icon disappeared.

i had seen also something like "4.1 kb volume", as reported in the ubuntuforums topic, in another xubuntu installation.

Re: unknown volume appeared on xfce desktop

it is not strange, look in your fstab and you will see that it is there in the list of volumes with mount point /boot/efi, what is strange to me, is that it appears in the ffox dialog box, but I see nothing serious in this...
