Bug Description
Binary package hint: hal
My thinkpad has an IBM_SERVICE partition containing various recovery tools. This partition is not normally mounted, and it is a pain to have it listed, particularly in the mounter applet. But Gutsy does not ignore it.
I recommend setting it to ignored in the fdi file, as done with Apple bootstrap and HP HP_RECOVERY partitions.

Looking at .fdi files, this should already be ignored :
leroutier@ portable- sloeuillet: ~$ grep -rni HP_RECOVERY /etc/hal/fdi/ /usr/share/hal/fdi/ hal/fdi/ policy/ 10osvendor/ 20-storage- methods. fdi:114: <match key="volume.label" string= "HP_RECOVERY" >
/usr/share/
leroutier@ portable- sloeuillet: ~$ grep -rni IBM_SERVICE /etc/hal/fdi/ /usr/share/hal/fdi hal/fdi/ policy/ 10osvendor/ 20-storage- methods. fdi:102: <match key="volume.label" string= "IBM_SERVICE" >
/usr/share/
Well, at least if it is "vfat" formated.
Could you tell us which file system is on it ? NTFS ?
I'm using : git20080301- 1ubuntu2

from Hardy
Which versions do you have ? (dpkg -l | grep hal)
