  ok, booted an old (ubuntu) kernel:

$ uname -r
3.2.0-33-generic
$

and now SD card mounts just fine:

/dev/sdc1 on /media/boot type vfat
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks)
/dev/sdc2 on /media/Narcissus-rootfs type ext3
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks)

so it's clearly something i've done stupid in rolling my own kernel.
"uhelper=udisks"?  not sure what that's all about, something i haven't
adusted in udev?  thoughts?
