Strangely, after upgrading GNOME from 2.10 to 2.12, mounting no longer works, at least except for cd drives. CDs work fine, but removable drives don't. Nautilus shows the removable drives, but when I try to mount it, it spews an error stating that it "can't find /dev/sda in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab".

dmesg returns:

I think it is a "problem" with the new hal-0.5.4 . Try running etc-update and configure hal.

Solved, I forgot to add myself to the plugdev group. But then, I found another problem. When I tried to mount my portable hard disk, it says that "device /dev/sda1 is not removable". Is this another problem with hal???

Hm. Never seen that one. Was the drive mounted anyway or did it fail?
Could be something in the HAL config. Not sure. What type of drive is it?

Possibly you need to upgrade to sysfsutils-1.3.0 and reemerge pmount?

See this post on the HAL mailing list.
