I'm running Windows under F14 while you're doing the opposite so I'm
not sure if it would be the same, but when you boot the F14 guest if
you right-click on the USB icon in the bottom right of the VB window,
does it list your usb device? If so, what happens when you left-click
on it? Does it get a check mark?

If it can be actively connected to your F14 guest then I would think
it would auto-mount assuming you're using Gnome/KDE...
