Doh! Right, I totally missed the part about pmount... not quite awake

Hmm... well, it seems to work. Mostly. I popped in an Ubuntu Live-CD
and it opened Konqueror with an error message saying:

An error occurred while loading media:/hdd:
The file or folder media:/hdd does not exist.

All I have laying around ATM are data cd's, I'll make an audio cd later
and try it out.
