I found automount worked on this USB enclose when installed on FC5_64 on this PC (on another HD) and also on FC5_32 on another PC, both with icons displayed on gnome desktop. Of course! well spotted Andrew! you need to start gvm - run `gnome-volume-manager ` from a terminal, then logout and back in again, and see if it works. Yes, it worked, no icons on gnome desktop. $ ls -al /media/disk $ ls -al /media/disk-l showed 2 partitions of the USB enclosure.
