This bug seems to be due to the installer creating an entry in
/etc/fstab for a CD-ROM drive when it shouldn't. After installing
intrepid alpha 4 on my eeepc (which has no CD-ROM drive), /etc/fstab
contains:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
# /dev/sda1
UUID=64d3fc31-3548-4ad1-93be-772f2b20490d /               ext3    
relatime,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/sdb1       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0

After inserting an SD card, Gnome pops up an error window that says
"Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume 'foo'". dmesg
contains the following, like the earlier reports:

[ 1425.246342] sd 0:0:0:0: [sdb] 16007168 512-byte hardware sectors (8196 MB)
[ 1425.248258] sd 0:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is on

[ 1426.134756] UDF-fs: No partition found (1)
[ 1426.171011] ISOFS: Unable to identify CD-ROM format.

Deleting the entry for the non-existent CD-ROM drive from /etc/fstab and
reinserting the SD card results in the card automatically mounting as it
should with no errors.

Since this bug is caused by the install process somewhere, this bug
should probably be reassigned away from hal (but I'm not sure which
package should be added instead.)
