Is networking available at boot-time? Or only after you login? Does mountall
run before networking starts? One difference since Ubuntu 7.10 is the addition
of network manager and when networking starts (on bootup versus on login).
The easiest solution is to script a "sudo mount /media/Storage" as part of
your login.
