Normally mounted partitions don't show up with icons, they're mapped
onto the directory tree.  I seem to recall that if you added a removable
parameter to their fstab entry, they'll behave more like what you want.
Though it's been so long since I tried that, that I can't remember the
trick.

Alternatively, you can make a shortcut on the desktop to their mount
point within the tree.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
