Ok so here's the update after the reinstall.
Automounting is gone. I haven't checked yet if udisks2 is installed.
I'm almost convinced it was something I did.
We shall see after I install the rest of the packages.
Now, however, whenever I plug in a usb hd, it doesn't show up on the desktop.
When I set it to show umounted hd vols, it also shows me root drive. Not good.
In the previous bigdaddy iso, I could plug a usb hd and it would pop up on the
desktop as would a USB drv.
Any suggestions as to what to look into?
The same procedure as every year? ;-)
1) Disconnect the USB drive.
2) What is installed, udev/sytemd/logind/udisks/udisks2/polkit/pmount?
3) Open 4 terminals. In the first, run "dmesg -w" sa root. In the second, run
"udevadm monitor". In the 3rd, run "watch cat /proc/partitions". In
the 4th get root and poke around. And open "konqueror media:/".
4) Plug in the USB drive. What hppens? What's happening in terminals 1 to 3? Does it
show up in /proc/partitions? udev generates events? Kernel logs something? If the device
is silently ignored, run "partprobe". What happens?
5) Use some different USB device and try again.
Then we'll know a bit more.

Hey Doc, I'll see if I can uninstall udisks2 and the like before adding
packages to see what calls it.
