bug: hal doesn't always detect my partition on sd card

[Daniel Winter]

Hello,

i have a problem with hal here.

It doesn't always detect the volumes on my sd card after insertion. It shows 
the sd card itself in lshal but not the volume.   But udev/kernel does create 
the /dev node for the partition. 

In about 1 of 5 tries it works. 

OS: Archlinux
Hal-Version: 0.5.11rc2
Kernel-Version: 2.6.24-ARCH 
udev-version: 119

Output from 
hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes when inserting the card (and it gets not 
recognised):
