I have not checked it. Look in /etc/fstab what is what in one terminal and
`df` in another and compare.

/data[X] are the mountpoints in /etc/fstab /media/disk[X] are the
mountpoints in the replacement for subfs. So if you want to mount
manually, you end up with /data1 and when you use the new system, you get
/media/disk1 (if the numbers are the same)

No idea. I have not yet looked into this new mounting system, so no idea
on how these names can be changed and so on. Not really intended to use it
in the future as I am a WindowMaker user. :-)
