Allegedly, on or about 22 September 2013, Joe Zeff sent:

Does automounting even work in text mode?  I thought Gnome or KDE stuck
their oars in to do automounting.

If it doesn't, one could always manually mount it.  Find out what it's
device is (e.g. dmesg|tail), then mount /dev/sdb1 /media (or mount point
of your own choice).

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point
trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the
public lists.
