The removable drive fix works.  Let me explain what's happening.

Gparted unmounts a file system.  The program used to auto-mount
removable drives detects an unmounted filesystem, and mounts it.  It
doesn't matter if it's removable or not, if you c an unmount it, it
counts as removable to the program used to auto-detect removable drives.
How else does it tell if it's removable, you think there's a hand inside
your linux box that feels for removable and non-removable drives?  Of
course not.  It's "removable" if it's unmountable.

Once again, turning off auto-mount removable media WORKS.  This is a
temp fix, yes, but to be fair it's only an inconvenience to use this
fix, it doesn't break anything else.
