OK, it mounts my USB devices (hard disk, scanner, camera, stick) all
too well, filling up my display with lots of icons, none of them
working properly. All of them with vfat (FAT32) file systems,
except the scanner. Same as in 10.1, but at least I'm now able to
control my /etc/fstab (in 10.1 some ghost in the machine kept
changing it). So now I can mount things manually without too much
hassle. And in 10.1 I had to do everything as root, not so
anymore. I can live with that.
Don't know what that HAL's supposed to do, but disabling it helped.
