[Bug 81219] [Feisty] Second volume in a USB drive not mounted

[José M. López-Cepero]

Public bug reported:

I have a PalmOne LifeDrive PDA. It has a 4GB hard drive and a SD card
slot. It also has an application which allows it to appear just like a
USB drive to the operating system when connected via USB. The
application provides two different mass storage drives: one is the 4GB
hard drive and the second is the SD card reader slot. (Edited - forgot
to finish the paragraph the first time, stupid me...)

Up to Dapper, plugging the PDA and enabling drive mode correctly mounted
and showed the two drives. However, now in Feisty the 4GB volume is no
longer mounted. This is independent of whether there is a SD card in the
PDA card reader or not. If there is, it's correctly detected and
mounted.

I can mount the drive just fine manually, but that kind of defeats the
purpose of having automounting :)

I was inclined to assign the error to hal, but the hardware browser and
lshal do show the missing drive. From hal's point of view, the LifeDrive
has an internal "SCSI Host Adapter" with two "SCSI Devices", one as
"file storage" (the 4GB drive) and a "SDC" (the SD card).

dmesg section when plugging the PDA:
