Bug Description

I was partitioning my harddisk using the feisty daily desktop 20070101 disk and every time the partition table changed the system would mount all the partitions it could find to mount. This is very irritating because nautilus pops up windows, but it is also dangerous because a partition could end up being mounted during a critical operation like resize.

I'm not sure what the correct package is because I don't know what package is used for live CD bugs.

To reproduce this just boot the live CD then start any partitioning tool (even the one in ubiquity) and create a partition. The system will mount all your mountable partitions under /media.
