I have a problem with hald and a removable ATA disk. This is complicated
because the fact that the partition is geli encrypted.
I think one issue is that this is not treated as removable. Is the any
way to make hald treat an ATA disk as removable?
But there may be another issue as lshal does not even show the
partition. It does see the drive, /dev/ad2, the slice, /dev/ad2a1, and
the encrypted partition, /dev/ad2a1d, but not the decrypted partition,
/dev/ad2s1d.eli. I assume it should show up.
I have other disks (USB) where the slice is encrypted and it works just
fine (/dev/da0s1.elid), so maybe it's the fixed disk issue.
Here is the lshal output for that disk:

Any suggestions for making the drive automount?
