Yes, if it isn't in /etc/fstab you need to specify both the device and the mountpoint (it shouldn't be in fstab, so that's fine). Thus the partition table on this device is definitively broken, it doesn't have any sensible data at all.
So the problem here is that there is a partition table, but an invalid one, and thus hal ignores the raw device in favor of the partition, which then is invalid. So arguably hal could be a little more robust here, but with corrupted data you can only do so much, I'm afraid.
