Hal mounts only 1 out of 2 partitions.

[George Billios]

Hello, I use hal 0.4.1 and there is a problem with my external hd driver.
It has two partitions, both vfat. When I plug it in, hotplug
recognises it, udev creates two new block devices /dev/sda1 and
/dev/sda2 but hal creates a mount point only for the second partition.
Here is the part from 'messages' log:

If I run hal-device-manager I see that the second partition is
recognised as having fstype vfat, fsusage filesystem and fsversion
FAT32 and the block device /dev/sda2, while for /dev/sda1 it says that
is has fstype msdos_partition_table (!!!), fsusage partitiontable and
blank fsversion.
Also the volume table has this funny name, while under windows the
second partition has as name "common" and the first one "backup".

Any ideas? 
Thanks
