Indeed, mountmedia could easily try to mount an ext2|ext3|ext4 device:
if ! ( media_mounted && checkcontents $MNT ); then
# Special case for an already mounted /hd-media.
if [ -d /hd-media ] && checkcontents /hd-media; then
mount --bind /hd-media /media
exit 0
fi
if ! grep -q ^vfat /proc/modules ; then
log-output -t mountmedia modprobe -q vfat || true
fi
the "modprobe ext2" command could be attempted there. Of course, that
needs to be sure the ext2 module is already available. It seens this
is what you "detect disk" trick is about, am I right?
Anyway, reassigning to the mountmedia package, which this bug pertains
to, I think.
