OK just for curiosity.

Yes, it worked, no icons on gnome desktop. $ ls -al /media/disk $ ls -al /media/disk-l showed 2 partitions of the USB enclosure. > After that, you could try the preferences for gvm, (in preferences > > removable drives and media) and make sure automounting and such is > checked.
