debian-6.0.2.1-i386-netinst.iso was put on a USB stick as described.

The output of udisks --show-info /dev/sdh1 is below and has 0x17 as the
partition type and 'presentation hide:  1'.

The following is an excerpt from /lib/udev/rules.d/80-udisks.rules:

   # Partitions which desktops should not display

   ENV{UDISKS_PARTITION_SCHEME}=="mbr", \
     ENV{UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE}=="0x00|0x11|0x12|0x14|0x16|0x17|0x1b|0x1c|0x1e|0x27|0x3d|0x84|0x8d|0x90|0x91|0x92|0x93|0x97|0x98|0x9a|0x9b|0xbb|0xc2|0xc3|0xdd|0xef", \
     ENV{UDISKS_PRESENTATION_HIDE}="1"


So no desktop icon is displayed because the partition on the device is
Hidden HPFS/NTFS.

There is no xfce bug. This report may be closed.
