There was a much earlier thread, originally started by deloptes (I believe),

In response to this thread, I mentioned that suddenly some of my external
drives were creating their own weird mount points, for example:
/media/Elements_25A1
/media/External_HDD____
/media/Mass_Storage_Device
/media/My_Book_________
/media/<some_new_name>
/media/<user_name>
/media/USB_Storage
(Note that I always create custom mount points for all my hard drives, so that
they don't keep changing on me if they somehow get unmounted. These points
did not obey my rules in fstab, but suddenly everything is more or less back
to normal.)
Does this sound like what you describe?
That is exactly what happens with pmount. e.g.:
/media/12.7MB ( sdb1 )

Hi all!
Is it just me or can sombody else replicate this behaviour:
1) pmount installed, udisks2 not installed: I get the "device
inserted .."-dialog, but the device icons do not show up. Mounting and
unmounting works. After removing all external devicis I still have /media/
populated with "interesting" folders, each containing one
file ".creaded_by_pmount". Zhese survive a reboot, so I have to remove them
by hand.
2) udisks2 is installed, pmount not instaled: I
get the "device
inserted .."-dialog, and all device icons as expected. Mounting and
unmounting works. /media/ is working as expected, i.e. folders disappear
when the device is removed.
So ... save to say "install udisks2 and
forget aboult pmount" ? pmount i
used in exegnulinux, that's why I ran into it.

Hi Nik
I don't use pmount, so I can't speak to its behavior. udisk2, as you
described, is how it works for me. udisk2, at least for me, works
perfectly. However, I would wait for the remaining collective to speak. We
might just learn something.
Cheers,
Kate
