Now some information for programmers if you would like to understand and
replicate the problem - fdisk outputs, MBR, EBR's (all before partition
table correction). Sorry, texts are localized, however numbers matter...
;-)

If you need anything more for fixing just let me know - appearently I am
not the only one with nested partition. :-)

Title:
  Does not automount hotplugged storage device - no USB, no CD/DVD

Status in “udisks” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have fresh install of Ubuntu Precise on new disk and automount
  doesn't work on any USB storage device nor on CD/DVD.

  The only possibility that "mounts" disk "automatically" is opening and
  closing usb-creator-gtk. Then disk is available (and mounted) in
  Nautilus. USB disk disappears from Nautilus after unmounting it using
  click to "open" button next to disk name in Nautilus. Using trick with
  usb-creator-gtk dosn't help everytime - e.g. Garmin Oregon 550
  normally connects as 2 USB disks - main device + inserted sd card.
  However, usb-creator-gtk mounts only sd card.

  I am able to mount disks manually.

  I had the same behaviour on the same computer with my old installation
  (originally Ubuntu 5.10 or 6.06 with regular upgrades to Precise) -
  originally everything was working properly, problem with automounting
  has appeared probably sometimes between July and September (I don't
  remember exactly since I have attributed this to me messing up somehow
  my installation).

  If you need any additional info, I can provide it from my current and
  also from old installation.
