Yesterday my third hd worked fine and I could access it through Home
Today it gives me a error:

Hal device permission Denied by policy org.freedesktop hal storage mount fixed auth_admin_keep_always

When I click on it this shows at the bottom of the screen and it highlights the Home folder at the top of the list
I'm using Mandriva Pro 2010 64 bit
I've tried to mount but no option when I right click on the drive.
I've tried to go to Configure Your Computer and Manage Partitions but it freezes and won't allow me to click on the drive in question.

Got it by accident by going through media and deleting the entry for the hd. Then refreshed and added the hd back in and it automatically became mounted again.
File system is Ext4
