Automounting removable media...

[gabrielle harrison and Paul van den Bergen]

GAH!!! now the CD automount seems to be working properly (I did run  
/etc/rc.d/autofs reload) Camera still not recognised. Don't dare add a  
card reader or USB stick at this point - too many other things I don't  
want to stop.

Yes, I know, I'm top-posting to my own messages. *SMACK*
