[ubuntu-uk] USB Thumb drive woln't mount under 64bit

[Ken Robson]

I am having issues with an 8Gb thumb drive. Under the 32bit version it 
mounts fine, but under the 64bit on my main machine it comes up with an 
error.

dmesg output:-
[  122.466494] Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...

When I plug it into the 32bit system it mounts under /media/disk-1 and 
shows as 8Gb Disk, but under the 64bit sys it says Cannot mount volume. 
and the details are:-
mount point cannot contain the following characters: ....
I have removed the /media/.hal-mtab file in-case it had some errors, but 
still not playing.

Any ideas?
