Actually guys this is one of the problems as attested to by a number
of messages on the Ubunu forums.
While Auto-mounting apparently worked fine in 6.x its apparently broke
in 7.04.
When I first open media run ls-la I get (after the cdrom and floppy
entries)
--ws--x--T 1 root root 0 2007-05-16 18:02 .hal-mtab-lock
after running
mount -t msdos /dev/sdb1 /mnt/flash I can now read the contents in the
media folder.
Thanks to all for their hints and assistance
Try adding adding that into /etc/fstab with options rw,auto,user and
hopefully next time it might auto mount for you. That'd work for any
msdos disk. You should experiment with the "auto" option instead of
msdos, then you may be able to mount any single USB drive with one entry:
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/flash auto rw,user,auto 0 0
